Evolve going free-to-play on PC as developer comments on disappointing reception, “DLC shitstorm”

Evolve is going free-to-play on PC as of July 7, Turtle Rock has announced. All those who purchased the game will be granted Founder status, keep all purchased add-on content and be honoured with “gifts, rewards, and special access” for as long as the shooter is in active development. The news isn’t especially surprising, as Evolve went dark on Steam earlier today, but there’s a lot more to it: Turtle Rock has committed to a “vigorous overhaul” of the asymmetrical multiplayer shooter, which is going back into beta on PC while it gets a thorough going over.
