Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.44/day in the week to Aug 4 → 31.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About

Welcome to The Ascent Group arcology, a corporate-run metropolis stretching high into the sky and filled with creatures from all over the galaxy.

One day, you are suddenly caught in a vortex of catastrophic events: The Ascent Group shuts down for unknown reasons and the survival of your district is threatened.

This is such an underrated game! The atmosphere and loving attention to detail are so strong that I feel like I need a bath every time I finish a session. The environments feel real, filled with rubbish, large bags, and general detritus that clutter these well‑considered and densely populated spaces. I had a great experience in the Cosmodrome, with a sense of “No Russian” vibes from COD. The arcology feels colossal and incredibly palpable, with each district offering its own distinct purpose and layout—from the Deepstink, which is rusted, cramped, and claustrophobic, to the neon beauty of the Highstreet. Wow. Repetitive elements are unavoidable but kept to a minimum. Ship and vehicle designs are stunning, seamlessly integrated into the moving environment. Only improvements I would recommend are more armour designs and character customisations like hair styles. I felt was a little limited. The E77 is a really fun weapon but is too weak sadly. The story, level design and lore are on point! The amour stats are also a little confusing with no explanation as to what the effect i.e. Physical damage vs the point on body/lower legs. Which is worth more? Fanatasic game and I really am enjoying it.

Les - : Des quêtes qui nécessite de nombreux rechargements du jeux pour que les éléments spawn, un niveau général facile mais une fin soudain très costaud. Tuer pour looter et XP est notre seule vraie action du jeu. Quand on tue des civils on nous dit que c'est pas bien, mais on peut massacrer jusqu'au dernier sans conséquence. Les gangers réapparaissent à l'infini, bien pour le loot, mais j'ai décimé des milliers de membre d'un gang et pourtant il est toujours aussi virulent ! Et ils m'attaquent que je sois niveau 1 ou 30 pour venir mourir contre moi comme des moucherons. Les + : Une histoire bien sympa et un univers que j'ai apprécié. De belles heures de jeu. mécanique qui tourne. visuel cool.
Played for 15 hours, logged in today to find there are no save files and my progress has been wiped. Very disappointing after so much time invested. Can't recommend due to that glaring issue, as I cannot play without fear of that occurring.
gg
good graphics and sound.
Vůbec to nejni zlý... Prostředí je TOP Zvuk je parádní Pro cyberpunk labužníky idealní záležitost Mužu jen doporučit...
Всем хорошего настроения, если ты читаешь это, значит тебя это заинтересовало. И так игра стрелялка от третьего лица, можно расслабиться и тупо пострелять, сюжет, так себе, в основном это просто беги стреляй, графон хороший, пули, мясо руки, ноги. Игра в стиле киберпанк, ты какой-то наемник в какой-то корпорации, на планете Велес, цель выжить и развиваться в навыках различных, стрельба, перезарядка, крит и т.д. и т.п. Итог, если тебе уже все надоело и хочется просто чего то нового, как мне, то я тебе рекомендую у меня заняло прохождение 26 часов.
NIce Twin-Stick-Shooter with some RPG-Elements. It crashed 4 times in 20 hours. If you are looking for a lot of loot, look elsewhere. It is more about exploring the world, find shops, chests etc. to find items then having them drop. Some stuff does drop though, but it's rather rare. If you get it for less than 10 Dollars, buy it. If you like it a lot, buy the Story-DLC.
The game lost my save file. I was 20 hours in and my save is gone. I can tolerate the crashes to a certain point, but wasting my time is something I won't stand for. It was fun and the aesthetics are amazing, but you're risking wasting your time on the game losing your save. Save your money and time. Don't buy.
Divertidíssimo. Obra de arte cyberpunk nos mínimos detalhes. Recomendado mesmo no preço cheio.
