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 22 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,513 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
The Ascent is a solo and co-op Action-shooter RPG, set on Veles, a packed cyberpunk world.
Welcome to The Ascent Group arcology, a corporate-run metropolis stretching high into the sky and filled with creatures from all over the galaxy. You play as a worker, enslaved by the company that owns you and everyone else in your district. 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. You must take up arms and embark on a new mission to find out what started it all.
You belong to the corporation. Can you survive without it?
Play the entire game alone or work together with up to three friends in local or online co-op.
Aim low or high, switch weapons and equip lethal gadgets, take cover and use the destructible environments at your advantage and keep adjusting your tactic as you face new enemies.
Customize your character with cyberware that suits your playstyle. Allocate new skill points as you level-up and try various augmentations to take down your enemies in new creative ways.
Meet new allies and enemies and find loot as you explore the brimming world of The Ascent and its wide range of districts, from the deep slums to the higher luxury spheres.

Reviews
The Ascent does important things quite good, shooting hoards of mobs to oblivion with minigun is very satisfying, graphics is stunning. but out of that, lots of things falls apart, QoL is non existent, we can only track 1 quest, the others only show on the mini map but not on the map, it's very annoying to track multiple quests. map is too complex, even in the city, it may look good but it sucks moving around. fast travel is limited to the same level, one elevator only connects two levels, need to go from one elevator to another all the time, the designer of this should be sterilized.
Superb action, Veles looks great. Plot is not one of the most original ones, but enough to keep you invested.

Из тех что заходит не сразу, тут не долго ждать, достаточно выбраться из первой локации на поверхность и все перед вами открывается киберпанк в изометрии, местами сложновата, но очень круто сделана. Вообще не пожалел что купил! Для инди игры прям очень круто выглядит. (Motion Blur в настройках выкл и станет значительно лучше)
This is a really cool game, but the single player feels vapid and I can't recommend a multiplayer game that's designed to crash when you play it with friends. The co-op has not been fixed, and it does not appear the developers have ever attempted to fix the issue, at any point, within the last half decade since release.
По началу довольно неплохая игра, пока не добираешься до последней локации, буквально за пол часа бракодел под названием "геймдизайнер" стирает все хорошие эмоции от игры и единственное что приходит на ум для описании игры после посещения данной локи - мусор. Не знаю кто там дизайнерил бункер 86 но искренне надеюсь что к геймдеву он больше отношения не имеет никакого... Игра просто вываливает на игрока орды мобов, пройти их не сложно а ОЧЕНЬ душно, конечно если этот кусок кода не баганет и персонаж просто не застрянет после рывка на одном месте, что к слову в этом месте я ловил трижды, но даже если все это "выстрадать" после мобья нас встречают 6 турелей с автонаведением и 2 гранамета которые с какого то перепуга периодически ваншотают на 3.5 полосы здоровья, и опять же не забываем что от турелей нужно постоянно уворачиваясь каждый раз надеясь что перс не застрянет... И при этом чекпоинт в начале и каждый раз нужно душится с этой кучей мобья. И это не говоря уже об отвратительной камере и отсутствия поддержки широких мониторов (только через сторонние утилиты). Вообщем в топку это изделие, даже по скидке жалко потраченного.
great solid game not a single crash on solo i have not played online so i cant say. if you want to play this game and have some money get the 3D monitor from Samsung you will not regret but please be aware this could result in your head been freaking blown away its freaking amazing on a level your cant understand till you see it your self. I also recommend this for the devs they will be amazed how amazing this looks in 3D YOU DONT NEED ANY 3D GLASSED IT USES EYE TRACKING this game was made in a way were it looks beautiful in 3D thanks devs for making it.
buggy as ♥♥♥♥
Колоритный киберпанковский боевик с видом сверху. Красивые, атмосферные локации. Планета-улей Велес. Мы в качестве наёмника корпорации Ascent выполняем задания для различных группировок. В наличии десятки пушек, аугментации, броня, бодрый саундтрек, частично разрушаемое окружение и враги отлетающие от взрывов в разные стороны. Можно проходить в кооперативе. Любителям Deus Ex и Redeemer всячески рекомедую!
хороший визуал, неплохой геймлпей. вопросы только к экономике и прокачке вооружения, но своих денег стоит
скучно as hell
