The asymmetric FPS fallen out of the top 100 games on Steam, and its peak count today is just 157. According to Steam Charts (because Steam itself doesn't go that low), that puts it just below Bus Simulator 16 and the 13-year-old Star Wars game Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. But it ain't dead yet.
The top of the looking for an animation programmer for a new game.
That listing (which has since been ed by postings for a narrative director, senior character artist, and technical artist) is for an “unannounced new IP,” which would presumably exclude anything related to Evolve. But possibly not, depending on how far you're willing to bend the semantics of "new IP." At a bare minimum, the timing is curious.
We'll found out the truth soon enough, but in the meantime I put it to you: After more than a year of release, punctuated by two season es, an abundance of pricy DLC, and widespread gamer indifference, can Evolve bounce back?
Update: Evolve is still listed on Steam, but is not currently available for purchase. Could it finally be making the transition to free-to-play?
