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 · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 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.

Ta gra jest zajebista, nic dodać nic ująć
Runs on any System the graphics are so cool I love the gun fights and the world
Буквально минут 5-10 и на стимдеке в это калище играть не хочется. - гениальная задумка с отсутствием простой кнопки выхода из игры; - нормальных настроек с переходом на русский языковой текст тоже нет, только отдельные танцы с бубнами; - предварительно неудобное управление, даже просто взять и поменять местами функции пары кнопок в настройках игры тоже не завезли.

worst possible bug, it deleted my saves twice, 1st at lv3 then lv 18...not recommend this at all.
good
Ehh, I can see why ppl like the game but it isn't for me. Walking.....walking....so much much walking from area to area. Sure...finished my mission, got to get out the encounter section since taxi won't pick me up inside (6 mins later...out). Than walk to the next elevator...than on the taxi again. oay. I'd really love to also have a better mapping / pathing system where I can pin my own waypoints on the massive maps. Getting lost in the world is no longer emersive, its tiring. Advancement has been so slow. I don't need a rougelike out of this, but omg I think my Xp is now creeping up so slow that next advancement is now hours away. Missions / side missions feel really spread out, so now grinding....grinding as my last mission (the AI hack) was very tough and I clearly needed more Xp. Like to see a better weapon selection, although because of limited upgrade mods, I'm basically been using the same three weapons. I don't have much incentive to try too many other weapons as now even if their damage might be more effective, my main upgraded weapon is still better. The only good thing is that the upgrades are forever and not linked to a specific weapon in your inventory, thank god. I know there is some clues in the codex, but I'd some more indication if my weapon is less or more effective against an enemy other than damage numbers. Overall, the world and art are great. Even the UX / UI are fine. It runs so much better than Path of Exiles II at least (where I found..if you like this game play this). But the game is quite grindy and at least for me, boring.
Played on Xbox on release. Still great today on Linux. Great co-op fun. Progression systems not too deep, but not too shallow considering its not meant to be played for hundreds of hours.
Fun but the walking to and fro areas killed it for me
