Bleeding Edge is a multiplayer online combat game developed by Ninja Theory. Xbox Game Studios released it for Xbox One and Windows in March 2020. The game’s alpha test had begun as early as June 2019, with players able to sign up for the game via the Bleeding Edge website. From the gameplay perspective, there are 13 characters that a player can choose. Each character has distinct attacks falling into three main classes. The game also uses a deep leveling system. However, the game has received mediocre reviews for the design of the map and the controls. The only silver lighting is the co-op feature that makes it a more enjoyable game if played along with other players online. Players can further enrich their experience with Bleeding Edge port forwarding. How so? Learn more below.
Getting Started With Bleeding Edge Port Forwarding
Without getting too technical, your router screens all your incoming connection requests. With port forwarding, you set instructions about where to direct a connection request. In this case, you’re telling your router to direct this connection directly to your gaming device. This direct connection is safe and results in a better gaming experience as a result of faster data flow and improved ping times.
Things You’ll Need Beforehand
You’ll need the following info before you can set up port forwarding on your device:
- The router’s IP Address. Read the section below for more info on this
- Your PC/gaming console’s IP Address. Read our detailed PS4 and Xbox One Port Forwarding guides to learn how
- A list of TCP and UDP Ports to forward. Find these listed in the very last section below.
Find Out Your Router’s IP Address
You can find out your router’s IP address following these steps:
- Search for Command Prompt or “cmd” from the Windows search bar.
- In the Command Prompt window, type in “ipconfig/all”.
- Your router’s IP Address should be mentioned next to Default Gateway.
How To Forward Ports
Port forwarding is not only safe but easy to set up. Just follow this step-by-step guide, and you’ll have it set up in a matter of minutes:
- Open any web browser and log in to the router (To log in, enter the router’s IP Address in the browser’s address bar).
- Scroll down to the port forwarding section.
- Fill in the PC or gaming console’s IP Address in the relevant fields.
- Similarly, enter the TCP and UDP ports in their appropriate boxes.
- Save the settings and reboot the router for the changes to take effect.
