Evolve Patch Fixes Data Loss On Xbox One
Evolve has received a new patch to fix some of the problems with the Xbox One version. If you’ve been experiencing data loss, the update will take care of that for you.
2K says that the progress loss bug was experienced by a “small percentage” of Evolve players. The publisher says it affected Xbox One most prevalently, indicating that the problem could arise on PS4 and PC in a fewer number of cases.
Additionally, patch 1.1 addresses a problem with shadows and the flashlight and improves matchmaking and invites. There are also some changes to progression.

Our Take
Unless you were impacted by the data loss problem (experienced most by those playing on multiple Xbox One consoles), this is a minor update. If you do happen to play at a friend’s house or access multiple units, this will come as an all-clear to move your game profile freely.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
