The asymmetric shooter Evolve, which kind of came and went in a bit of a fog, has just added some free content in the form of an Arena Mode. How exactly would an Arena mode work in an asymmetric environment? Also, what exactly does asymmetric mean?
First up, the definition. According to Mr. Internet "Asymmetry is the absence of, or a violation of, symmetry". Righto, thanks for that. In terms of Evolve, where four hunters take on a single huge hulking monster, the arena mode will work like this.
The short version: The Monster and the Hunter squad all get dropped into a dome. No escape, no excuses – this ain’t over until someone goes down!
The new Arena Mode places five fixed domes on each of the 14 maps in Evolve. For those not up on your math, that’s 70 locked-down venues, ready for brawling.
At the start, you select a map, then you’re in for a best-of-three series of hardcore firefights. The Monster and Hunters are locked in that dome until one side is eliminated. After that match, you immediately jump to another dome on the same map for round two – that continues until there’s a victor.
