Turtle Rock's Big Alpha weekend started yesterday for the people with Xbox Ones, but for the rest of us on PS4 and PC, it begins today at 4PM GMT/ 9AM PDT. That means in just a few short hours, tens of thousands of Evolve fans will take to the jungle for the first time in their own homes to hunt and be hunted.
You can pre-load the game now, which is likely a good idea as there's always a rush when these things begin. Turtle Rock also had some matchmaking issues out of the gate with the Xbox One version, so expect an imperfect first outing for the game, but hopefully we can all get a few games in as the Alpha runs through until Sunday evening.
Available to all gamers will be the eight revealed hunters, giving us two options for all classes (Assault, Support, Trapper and Medic) and two monsters, the Goliath and Kraken. Not all will be available straight away, players will have to win games with the first set of hunters and Goliath in order to progress to the second set of characters and monster.
However there should be a good number of maps to play on, as the game is set to ship with 'more than' 12 and we've already been privy to at least four, so expect some varied environments when you finally set foot on Shear.
Which character/monster are you guys most looking forward to playing with?
