Evolve will get a day-one patch that will improve several aspects of the game, developer Turtle Rock Studios has announced.

The patch will vary in size depending on the platform, but it's about 3GB, and most notably improves load times, matchmaking, and network bandwidth optimizations.

The patch also addresses several bugs discovered during the Big Alpha and Open Beta, balances Monsters and Hunters, and adds connectivity to the recently released Evolve mobile game.

Finally, the patch reworks the Elite skins for Hunters and Monsters based on feedback from the community. "We’ve updated or outright replaced the assets that were already in the game," Turtle Rock said. "All you need to do to unlock them: EARN THEM."

For examples of how the Elite skins were changed, head here, and for the complete list of what's included in the day-one patch, head here.

For more on the game, make sure you read everything you need to know about Evolve before it launches on February 10.
