Evolve verscheen eerder dit jaar en zoals je in onze review kon lezen hadden we het best naar ons zin met de game. Ontwikkelaar van de game, Turtle Rock Studios, heeft de afgelopen tijd geluisterd naar de feedback en kwam er bijvoorbeeld achter dat het monster Wraith iets te sterk was en vandaar dat ze met de patch 1.3 komen die onder andere dit monster aanpast.
De studio gaf dit aan op de site van de game. Wraith krijgt als we zo naar de onderstaande patch notes kijken duidelijk een nerf. Zo beweegt dit monster trager en is de Supernova minder lang te gebruiken. Verder zijn er nog wat aanpassingen gedaan bij de andere monsters, maar ook de wapens en vaardigheden van de hunters zijn aangepast. Bekijk hieronder alle details.
