‘Evolve’ Gets Eight-Legged Freaky With New DLC

Every time I write about 2K’s asymmetrical multiplayer take on Monster Hunter, I get a little bit sad. I really wanted to like Evolve, but despite a concerted effort on my part, I’ve been unable to muster enough interest in its awesome concept to actually play it. I still want to want to play it, and that’s the problem. If only there was something I could focus on as a reason to stay away…

Enter the fifth monster to come to Evolve — the Gorgon.

I can sum up my feelings on this eight-legged freak with just one word: nope.

I respect the decision to use the grind house aesthetic for a trailer that’s about hunting down a two-story god-spider, but the only arachnids I’ll be seeing on my copy of Evolve will be the ones I murder with the game disc. The Gorgon DLC will be unlocked automatically on Nov 3 for season pass owners of the season pass. The rest of you can drop $9.99 for it.

Meanwhile, I’ll be sitting here dousing anything that moves with Raid while I chuck gas bombs into any and all crevices that look capable of hiding the enemy.

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.
