Battleborn

Battleborn is a hero shooter built around ability-heavy characters, team fights, and lane pressure, so it appeals most to players who like mixing shooter aim with MOBA-style structure. By our assessment, the draw is the cast design and the way each hero pushes a different role into a noisy, busy match. The downside is that this format asks a lot from coordination and balance, and a game like this lives or dies on whether the team rhythm is there. In practice it sounds like a lot of moving parts because it is a lot of moving parts, with cooldowns, objectives, and group pressure all competing for attention. Battleborn sits in the same broad territory as other hero shooters, but it leans harder into lane-based objectives than many of them. It is for people who want overlap between shooter and MOBA ideas, and it will not suit someone who just wants a simple arena gunfight.
