Valve's unreleased hero shooter mixed with a MOBA, where teams push lanes, farm souls and fight with guns and abilities. It is still in an invite-only playtest but has a big following.
Kit's verdict · 7.9/10
An ambitious, messy hybrid with enormous potential and still a long way from finished.Kit · Sadkitty Games
Loved

Not so much

Play it if players who love both shooters and MOBAs and want something new.
Skip it if players who want a finished, polished game.
