We established last month that Turtle Rock Studios’ Evolve was leading the Game Critics Awards at this year’s E3 event with six nominations to its name.
Now, as detailed in a press release published on Thursday, July 3, it has been revealed that Evolve has taken home Game Critics Awards’ “Best of Show” award for E3 2014, along with more than 50 awards and editorial honors (including four more from the Game Critics Awards).
“ We would like to thank the press around the world for their warm and enthusiastic response to Evolve at E3 2014, ” said Turtle Rock Studios’ co-founder and design director Chris Ashton in the press release. “ We are encouraged and humbled to see that critics are realizing what we’ve known for a long time: that Evolve is a special experience unlike anything that we’ve ever played before. ”
“Evolve continues to solidify its position as one of the most anticipated games of the year, ” added 2K president Christoph Hartmann in the same press release. “ The accolades for Evolve highlight the excitement and desire for new IP on next-gen systems, and we are poised to deliver what we believe will be the defining next-gen experience of 2014. ”
The other awards given to Turtle Rock Studios’ Evolve from the Game Critics Awards have been listed below, along with the game’s several other E3 awards, too.
Evolve has been slated to release on Tuesday, October 21 for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 . We’ll bring you more Evolve -related news should further information reach our ears. In the meantime, check out our Angelo M. D’Argenio’s PlayStation 4 review of the game .
