If you’re a tank, however, you can endure some abuse and if you’re a tank with a healer nearby, you’re in good shape as you can probably pick off some enemies and health a solid amount of whatever damage you’re taking in real-time thanks to your ally. There’s a bit of risk/reward in going for a marker too because you’re more visible and will be approaching an area that enemies know to keep an eye on. Instead of just a straight-up timer on your HUD, you have the timer baked into the landmine-looking markers alongside a circular indicator that fills up when you know you’re close. Fortunately, Ninja Theory’s past with games like DmC allowed them to do a good job replicating each while still coming up with a slightly new way to present capture points. That freedom can pay off or it can be your downfall as it’s easy for enemies to cluster up and when that happens, whichever team is lower in number in that area is doomed more often than not.īleeding Edge has a slightly higher learning curve than Sunset Overdrive in part because it’s both a melee game and a shooting game depending on your preference, and those are two completely different kinds of action to try and replicate. I opted to go with short-range attackers to start before finding that even in a support role, I preferred longer-range attacks as they allowed me more freedom on the map. Your pre-match setup will warn you if your team is unbalanced against your own success, and if it is, you can always just die and try a new character out for size. You get three classes and have to weigh the pros and cons of each. Your regular all-around and tank characters benefit a lot from damage upgrades - especially tanks, as they can take out enemy support in a few seconds with relative ease.Īs a shooter, Bleeding Edge is streamlined which makes it user-friendly for casual players.

Character class also plays a large part in things, as support isn’t going to be ideal for a weapon upgrade as their offense will just chip away, but they would benefit from health pickups. Wasting time means that you can easily miss your chance to really use something like a damage buff. You can get damage increases, health pickups and the like, but need to be efficient. Power-ups have been absent in gaming as a whole for a long time, but here, they act as fun short-term buffs. While Sunset combined third-person shooting with parkour platforming and a lot of rail grinding with a surprisingly in-depth RTS experience, Bleeding Edge blends third-person shooting with base capturing and something we don’t see in either genre much: power-ups. It’s led to Microsoft branching out into different kinds of games - like Sea of Thieves - to help make it stand out.īleeding Edge may stand as the final major release on the original Xbox One line of systems and it acts as a nice bookend because its tone and overall feel of the world evokes an early Xbox One hit in Sunset Overdrive - only with a multiplayer-centric mentality. Instead of having to plunk down $60 on something (or $30 in this case), you can just try out the service for $1 and see if you like it. 2020 has been a bit lean for major releases on the platform and Microsoft’s Game Pass service has changed the nature of first-party releases for the foreseeable future.
