The Evolved were virally enhanced individuals created by Alex Mercer for the purpose of infiltrating and destroying Blackwatch and Gentek and to further his plans to spread the Blacklight virus. They utilized a pair of Blades of varying shapes as a means of attacking, which are supplemented by powers that vary between each Evolved. Among the abilities unique to each evolved are Whipfists, the ability to produce Biobombs, tracking others of their kind, being untrackable, Consuming individuals and summoning Brawler Hunters or a flock of Flyers.

Alex used his Evolved agents, such as Doctor Anton Koenig, to infiltrate Blackwatch and Gentek, as part of a plot to spread the Whitelight compound that was originally meant as an inoculation against his own virus, thus transforming anyone inoculated with the Whitelight into an evolved under Alex's control.

Known Evolved

Trivia

  • Several of the Evolved, such as Dr. Koenig and Sabrina Galloway, refer to James Heller as being one of them, although he shares far more similarities with Alex Mercer
  • Strangely, the Evolved can shift their arms to only one kind of weapon, the two blades we observe; unlike Mercer and Heller who have a variety. However, the Evolved sent by Mercer to kidnap Commander Cantrell had twin whipfists instead of blades.
  • Nearly every appearance of an Evolved is scripted, unlike Hunters and tanks, who can appear in any specific place.
  • Almost all of the Evolved appear in Blacknet missions.
