Evolve Game Release Date, Gameplay, Trailer : Beta Test Release Date Will Be Xbox One Exclusive: Co-Op Shooter From 'Left 4 Dead' Creator Turtle Rock [VIDEO]

"Evolve" has just won best game at Gamescone 2014 (it did the same thing at E3). After a release date delay from October to February 10, 2015 "Left 4 Dead" producers are sitting pretty with what may be one of the best games this year.

The reason for the delay was to give the game more time being polished, and to not compete with an incredibly jam packed October release schedule.

It will start out as an Xbox exclusive.

"Evolve" will feature a 4vs 1 formula, where 4 human soldiers controlled by 4 players try to fight one monster controlled by one player. Its essentially a never ending multiplayer boss fight, with one player playing as the boss.

The beta starts January 15, 2015 exclusively on Xbox One, Microsoft confirmed today at Gamescom. Microsoft reaffirmed downloadable content will be released first on Xbox One. No beta registration process has been announced.

According to IGN, " As stated on the Take-Two Interactive earnings call, 2K and Turtle Rock Studios are extending the development of Evolve by a few months to allow enough time to fully realize the vision for Evolve and meet our collective standards of creative excellence. We are encouraged by the press reaction and fan excitement coming out of a very successful E3, and we are now certain we are headed in the right direction with the game and we are confident in delivering a genre-defining product when Evolve launches on February 10, 2015."

Kotaku reports that the people behind Evolve were excited by the news, "We are blown away by the positive reception for Evolve from both the critics and the consumers here at Gamescom," said Phil Robb, the game's creative director. "Winning the 'Best of Show' award at both E3 and Gamescom in the same year is humbling and exhilarating."

"It's encouraging to see the level of excitement for Evolve rise constantly," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "The team at Turtle Rock Studios is creating something very special with this new IP that we believe will deliver one of the most unique and engaging next-gen experiences early next year."

Again the Evolve release date will be January 15, 2015. Check back for more information as we get closer to the "Evolve" release date.
