For all the controversy that Evolve has been mired in, it is very easy to forget that there is a well made and innovative multiplayer shooter underneath it all. We’ve had Evolve for over a week, and 2K Games have decided to share an infographic that shows off some game stats (no sales numbers here though, because of course there aren’t; publishers seem to be increasingly reticent to share those these days), and that infographic shows us that Evolve is a quick paced, well balanced game- the hallmarks of a good multiplayer shooter.

As you can see, neither the hunter side nor the monster side seems to have any clear advantage, judging by overall win percentages- there is a minor difference, but it can be dismissed as statistical noise. We can also see that each game ends lightning fast, and that players who know what they are doing can usually take control of the game pretty soon (judging by the First Contact stat).

Evolve released on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation; stay tuned for more coverage and information.
