Spilling claret for the cause with a MOBA-style scrapper that’s gunning for Overwatch

Bleeding Edge

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before. So an undead rocker with a metallic snake for an arm, a firebreathing ghoul who looks like that scarecrow thingy from Jeepers Creepers, and a grandma with boney talons walk into a bar... We’d tell you the punchline, but honestly, after a few rounds with Ninja Theory’s chaotic arena brawler, our minds are mush.

Bleeding Edge is often that most dreaded of videogame adjectives: ‘zany’. Ugh. Virtual wackiness can be tolerable in small doses, but without solid gameplay foundations and restraint, titles that fall back on tryhard clownery can quickly grate. We went hands-on with this 4v4 MOBAlike customer recently, and right now, it’s hard not to be concerned about Bleeding Edge’s outright obsession with exhausting, scrappy spectacle.
