"We would like to thank the press around the world for their warm and enthusiastic response to Evolve at E3 2014," said Chris Ashton, co-founder and design director at Turtle Rock Studios. "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," said Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. "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."

Those are some bold claims from Hartmann there, proclaiming it the "defining next-gen experience of 2014" like that. But given how the game took home about 50 "best of" awards from E3 2014, maybe he's not far off the mark in that statement. A list of the awards can be found below. Evolve is slated to be released on October 21, 2014 for the PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 platforms.
