Take-Two Interactive announced the delay for Evolve in the company's first quarter 2015 earnings release . The multiplayer shooter was originally slated to come out October 21. 2K provided the following statement:"As stated on the Take-Two Interactive earnings call, 2K and Turtle Rock Studios are extending the development of Evolve by a few months to allow enough time to fully realize the vision for Evolve and meet our collective standards of creative excellence. We are encouraged by the press reaction and fan excitement coming out of a very successful E3, and we are now certain we are headed in the right direction with the game and we are confident in delivering a genre-defining product when Evolve launches on February 10, 2015."Evolve joins a growing list of big-name games to get bumped to 2015.
