It's a big day for Left 4 Dead developer Turtle Rock's new monster-hunting game Evolve. The 4v1 shooter on Tuesday added a host of new content, including the Behemoth Monster, four new hunters, two free maps, and the Observer Mode.
Watch the video above to see the new content in action.
A full breakdown of all the new content available now for Evolve is below. Note that the two free maps are launching first today on Xbox One, and will come to PC and PlayStation 4 at the end of April.
Players who do not buy Behemoth or the new Hunters are still able to play against or alongside the new characters. Publisher 2K says this will add "depth and replayability for the entire Evolve community without dividing players based on what additional content they own."
Evolve released on February 10 and, according to parent company Take-Two, enjoyed an "incredibly successful" launch. It was the second best-selling physical game in February, outsold only by The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D, at least in the United States.
