Evolve Hunting Season 2 will be available for purchase on
June 23, 2015 for Xbox One, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment
system, and Windows PC. Those who purchase the new Monster and
Hunters as part of Hunting Season 2 will also receive an
additional exclusive skin with the launch of each of the five new
included playable characters.
Coming to Evolve later this month, Lennox (Assault class)
is the first Hunter in Evolve to feature a melee attack. Her
‘Thunderchild’ mechanized suit is equipped with a Plasma Lance that
deals massive amounts of damage in close combat, while her
Autocannon and Thunder Strike attack allow Lennox to fight when
outside of melee range.
“The new Monster and Hunters coming to Evolve in Hunting
Season 2 are some of the most unique characters our team has
created,” said Chris Ashton, co-founder and design director at
Turtle Rock Studios. “Each of these characters introduces combat
mechanics that are brand new to the Evolve gameplay
experience.”
