I guess it is supposed to be free to play "slay for free" But on Steam there is no "Play" button. All there is is content packs to purchase. It is listed under "freetoplay" on Steam. Seems bogus.

It's because it's still in closed beta.

It plays like Bloodline Champions if you've ever played that.

I'm surprised there could possibly be anybody left in the world hasn't been given invites to the beta for this. But if there still are, I've got like 4 of them, just PM me here or ask me on Steam for one of them.

It's not a classical moba, but it has a lot of moba-elements. The game is more action focused and obviously the 3-Team-Setup makes a huge difference.

@memu: It's free to play, but it's still in beta (not released to the general public yet... but you can sign up for their beta at the website, and they give out codes fairly frequently.
