Bleeding Edge is a combat-focused, online multiplayer game from the developers of DmC: Devil May Cry, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Heavenly Sword, and more. The game's roots are firmly nestled in the MOBA genre, putting two teams of four against each other in objective-based arenas. With an eclectic batch of characters to choose from and a unique visual style heavily influenced by graffiti art, Bleeding Edge is pretty fun once players get past its steep learning curve.
