Bleeding Edge Reviews
Lackluster cosmetics are the least of Bleeding Edge’s problems. Ninja Theory may have succeeded in creating a cast of distinct, well-crafted characters that are full of personality, but it stumbled in making an engrossing game around that diverse roster.
Bleeding Edge blends third-person action with MOBA and hero-shooter mechanics to create an interesting but flawed action esport.
Bleeding Edge is a online 4v4 brawler in which two teams fight to control objectives. The combat in the game feels satisfying and the characters are well balanced. Teamwork is very important and therefore as a solo player it can be frustrating when your team doesn’t work together. It’s a shame that there is very little content in the game. Updates with more fighters, gamemodes and maps are desperately needed to keep Bleeding Edge fresh and entertaining.

The latest title by Ninja Theory could be very well considered as one of their weakest works, a title that tries to take its shot in an overcrowded hero shooter genre and fails. Bleeding Edge doesn't add anything new to the genre, and it seems that it only tried to be another copy of the games like Overwatch.

Bleeding Edge is a decent multiplayer hero slasher that feels a little undercooked with lot of bugs and so little content.

Bleeding Edge is not what you would normally expect from Ninja Theory, and it's hard to imagine why they would choose to work on this title instead of focusing on their other, more important, IPs.

There's a decent multiplayer action game concept buried in here, absolutely. Some of these characters deserve to live on in future projects. At the same time, it feels like there are only so many team dynamics to experience. It's all too fleeting. Once you've hit that point of no return, there's no real motivation to continue. I'd like to pick this back up one day, but realistically, I don't see that happening.
Bleeding Edge is fun to play, but it’s rather shallow in terms of content and has some performance issues.
Bleeding Edge has a solid foundation as a melee-focused multiplayer action game that tries to appeal to the masses, but it is a bit short on content, and has a few notable issues that need resolving. Within such a highly competitive genre, hopefully changes arrive sooner rather than later, if the game is to have a shot at longevity.
Bleeding Edge is a decent multiplayer action game lacking enought content to keep the players engaged in the long term.

Bleeding Edge is engaging for a few hours and then heavy repetition sinks in
Bleeding Edge is a surprisingly enjoyable, fun and originally styled online experience. Although its approach may initially seem too simplistic in the formula, in reality the game of Ninja Theory hides a deep and well-kept gameplay that, to be mastered, needs time and training.

Bleeding Edge has the typical multiplayer fun that's built-in by default. Wide range of playable characters allow the gamers to spend plenty of time in theory-crafting their strategies. On the other hand, the depth of the lore doesn't really attach those characters to the back story as much. While the game relies on gathering with other players to battle, it's also the only content worth mentioning as many of the other aspects lack in standing out.

Bleeding Edge is a complex and fun take on the Hero-Based genre. The combat in this game is the main attraction, the way you have to make a combo out of your attacks and abilities makes fighting enemies a blast. The maps design is great (although the size of some maps is an issue) and the heroes have incredible and detailed design and their unique and innovative abilities make the game more appealing and fun. Both visually and design-wise, the game looks great and Ninja Theory should definitely thank their design team. Unfortunately, though, Bleeding Edge lacks content, The quantity of the maps are low and right now there is only one Quick Play mode for playing. Also, there are some balancing issues between Support and Core heroes which should get addressed and some of the maps are too big for a 4v4. Overall, if Ninja Theory decides to continue supporting this game, Bleeding Edge could become one of those hot multiplayer games that everybody plays

With situations like that, there's certainly fun to be had in Bleeding Edge. The gameplay is solid, and I enjoyed my time with the title. It just needs more of ... everything: characters, game modes, maps, and skins. Microsoft and/or Ninja Theory certainly seem to be aware of this shortcoming, if the game's price tag is any indication. That doesn't change the fact that the game desperately needs more content if it wants to keep its audience; otherwise, Bleeding Edge's matches might not be so bloody in the very near future.
Right now, Bleeding Edge is an enjoyable but light multiplayer diversion.
A fun hero brawler that has a long way to live up to its potential

Bleeding Edge has a ton of potential, largely thanks to its fun and well-designed combat, colorful style and characters, and nicely-crafted levels and goals that emphasize the need for teamwork and strategy.
With memorable characters and fast-paced combat, Ninja Theory's new game Bleeding Edge is a promising new entry in its genre. The only question is: will it hold up against the fierce competition, or fall short of the mark set by others?
