Battlerite

If you are tired of big and complicated MOBA games and want something small and fast-paced, try Battlerite.

To distinguish itself from the MOBA crowd, Battlerite went for pure, skill-based action and hit the mark dead center. The fluid mouse-and-WASD-driven combat makes every move count and the quick pace of its 10-minute matches never lets off the gas. Even with its lackluster randomized progression system robbing it of momentum, Battlerite keeps me coming back to improve and add to my bag of tricks along the way. Stunlock’s approach to MOBA combat creates a near-even playing field that makes each outplay feel earned, whether it was me or my foe picking up the win. These arenas are places I can see myself brawling for a long time to come.

A well designed competitive brawler that separates itself from the crowd. Battlerite is as rewarding as it is addictive. [Issue#269, p.54]

Opens up a world of team action to a new audience while being an ace competitive game in its own right. [Jan 2018, p.66]

It’s amazing...In a sea of LOL imitators, its refreshing to see so many smart design ideas on display here. Thanks to the game’s gleeful disregard of genre conventions, Battlerite feels like something that few free to play games manage — refreshing and dynamic.

Battlerite brings MOBAs back to their pure essence. Despite it is very hard to master, the Stunlock's creature is a deep, intensive and enjoyable experience you'll fall in love with.

Deep but accessible, Battlerite is packed with smart decisions and reliably creates great competitive moments.

MOBA battles without complications: enter in the arena and destroy the rivals, without levels, nexus or towers. A lot of skills and synergies between the different champions of the game. It's seems to be hard for Battlerite to go beyond teamfights.

I was pleasantly surprised by Battlerite in this crowded sea of arena/MOBA games, but once I learned that Stunlock Studios was at the helm it all made sense. This genre is in its DNA, and I hope this one catches on for a while as more than just an alternative to some of the bigger market leaders.

If you’re interested in competitive gaming and really need something new to sink your teeth into, you do not need to look any further than Battlerite. Balanced, fun characters, unobtrusive monetisation, and refined to give the core experience of competitive gaming. Battlerite is exceptionally good.

Battlerite provides fast paced, beautiful combat with a litany of combos and movesets across its cast. You are given a great toolset to freely explore various playstyles to determine which you prefer the most — or with which you’re mostly successful.

If you like arena-based multiplayer games, this one deserves a try. Fast, fun and challenging, it’s one of those games that can keep you playing for a long time.

Action-packed, yet demanding multiplayer fun, but it lacks variety and depth in the long run.

Battlerite is a great PvP free-to-play game with very fun skill based combat.

Battlerite shines through its combat system which is tight and simple but also infinitely complex. A beautifully crafted and balanced title.

Battlerite goes far beyond the MOBA concept and puts player on a multiplayer arena that will remind us games like Nex Machina, but without leaving its original MOBA roots, making this game an excellent alternative to traditional games of the genre.
