Battleborn belongs to the hero-pick FPS genre, also known as MOBA shooter. There is both PvE and PvP content. The emphasis is on teamwork. There is a single that can be completed alone. It has a built-in tutorial and a lot of colorful screensavers.
The campaign is about trying to save the last star of Solus from destruction by the forces of Lothar Rendain. It consists of a prologue and 8 levels. It can be played on normal, hard and hardcore difficulty, as well as in co-op. According to the lore, all heroes are divided into 5 groups: Rebels, Eldrids, the Jennerite Empire, Peacekeepers and the Union of the Last Light. They teamed up to take on 4 bosses: Warlord Nyx, Magnus Isaac, Sister Aria, and Rendain himself.
Battleborn has 30 unique characters with special abilities. These are: Whiskey Foxtrot, Shayne in Aurox, Phoebe, Alani, Rath, Kelvin, Ambra, Marquis, Attikus, Beatrix, Toby, Benedict, Boldur, Ernest, Caldarius, Deande, Montana, El Dragon, Galilea, Pendles, Ghalt, Kid Ultra, Reyna, Kleese, Oscar Mike, Thorn, Mellka, Orendi, Miko.

There are 4 modes in the network game: "Invasion" (attacking another's base and defending your own), "Destruction" (capturing points), "Smelting" (escorting creeps to the center of the map for points), "Masks Away" (collecting items that drop from mobs for speed). During the battle, all participants gain experience and swing from level 1 to level 20 within the same match. Consisting of 3 lines and 10 levels, the spiral system allows virtual warriors to improve their abilities, and users to make builds for different play styles.
