Sign Up for the ‘Evolve’ Alpha for a Chance to Unleash the Kraken

Published

If you aren’t adequately excited for Left 4 Dead developer Turtlerock’s next game, than I clearly haven’t done my job. Evolve pits four player-controlled soldiers against a player-controlled monster, with each side having the simple goal of hunting down and eliminating their enemy. It’s a game of predator vs. prey, where the tides continuously shift depending on how resourceful the monster is and how well the team of players work together.

I’m sufficiently hyped for it, and now, we’re being given the chance to play it early — assuming you have a PC that can handle it.

For a chance to get in on the Evolve alpha, you’ll need to provide some info here. It’ll require a password to access (happyhunting), which has been provided by Turtle Rock community manager Jess Damerst on Twitter. You’ll also need a referral code (JoinTheHunt).

If you decide to sign up for it, don’t forget to return here to let us know if you get in!

Evolve is slated to release on PC, PS4 and Xbox One on October 21.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
