From fewer than 200 players on PC prior to the re-launch to now more than 2-Million in less than one month, Evolve is making a monstrous comeback – and the folks at 2K and Turtle Rock Studios aren’t done yet! We’ve already seen one new Hunter added to the game, Electro Griffin, and today Gamepedia has exclusive information on another new hunter releasing tomorrow, Quantum Caira, and her powerful cosmic abilities.
“With Update 2.04, all content is unlocked in Solo mode so anyone can give anything a test run before unlocking it.On July 7, Evolve smashed its way back onto our PCs with the re-launch of Evolve Stage 2, a completely revamped and free version of the addictive 4v1 monster-hunting shooter. “We’ve heard from all over our Community that players wanted some way to try out content before investing the time and Silver Keys towards an unlock, so we introduced the 'Try before you buy' feature,” Turtle Rock wrote. The update also fixes a few bugs and makes some balance changes, introduces a new Advanced Hunter Tutorial “designed to help players understand more than just the basic mechanics of being a Hunter,” and-this is nice-unlocks all in-game content in Solo Mode. Turtle Rock said Quantum Caira is “one of our most daring Medic designs yet.” She can also use “amplified Proton energy” to set up zones that damage enemies over time, and deploy a “Neutron Barrier” that applies a short damage resistance buff to any fellow Hunters nearby. Whatever happened, her apparent demise was quickly followed by the appearance of someone who looks an awful lot like her, but with the ability to wield regeneration fields as a healing tool. The first update will include a new Medic character named Caira Diaz, AKA Quantum Caira, who may or may not have been killed by an energy surge at an EbonStar black site holding a captive “Wraith” known as The Phantom.
