Turtle Rock Studios and 2K have announced that Evolve will be entering “Phase 2” of its lifespan, meaning it is now free-to-play on PC. After citing the lukewarm reception to the game’s launch and extensive amount of DLC, Turtle Rock Studios had this to say via their developer blog:
“It means we’ve been listening and now we’re taking Evolve in the direction that a lot of you have suggested since the beginning. We’re making Evolve free on PC. No buy-in or box required.
