After the news hit late last night that 2K's financials had revealed a 2015 delay for Evolve, its creators have spoke out.
Posting on the Evolve forums Turtle Rock co-founder Chris Ashton stated that the delay was a matter of making sure the game was fully polished.
"As we got closer to the October date, we were able to look at where the game was going to be, and compare that to where we all dreamed it would be. In a meeting with the top brass I described it as 'painfully close.'
Fortunately 2K feels the same way and is willing to put extra time into the game so that we can make our dream a reality. That's huge for us, and for the future of Evolve. We want to be proud of every aspect of the game on release day."
The game's now scheduled for a February release date.
