Evolve, the highly anticipated alien shooter game from 2K and Turtle Rock Studios, took home the "Best of Gamescom 2014" Award. It also won four other awards out of 13 awards.

This four versus one cooperative shooter game involves an interesting gameplay reminiscent of RPG tabletop games where one player who plays a monster hunts down and tries to kill the four other players.
