Bleeding Edge is an upcoming online melee action game from Ninja Theory. The team developed games like DmC: Devil May Cry and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, so the combat pedigree is strong.

During E3 2019, the developer revealed that an alpha test would take place on June 27. It's unclear how long it's supposed to last, but we do know that signups are open right now. All you have to do is head over to the Bleeding Edge website here and click the giant button that says "Join the Alpha."
