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.

Отличный шутер , похожий на ален шутер Красивая графика и приятная прогрессия
The aesthetics and art style of the game are great. Unfortunately the game stutters constantly, crashes frequently, and I have run into quite a few broken quests that don't allow you to progress due to glitches.

A fun top-down shooter set in a Cyberpunk world. So far I am enjoying the story in co-op with my partner, and the combat is really fun especially with different augmentations, weapons, and tactical gear available. There are some bugs in co-op. If you and another player interacts with a vendor at the same time it can cause one of the players to get locked into a screen and the only way to fix is ALT-F4. But other than the small bugs, I have been enjoying running around and looking at the amazing visuals and environment. There's quite a few weapons available and the further you are into the game, the more weapons and armour becomes available to loot and purchase. The controls are simple and having controller support, it's a great twin stick game. I highly recommend this game 👍
The Ascent is a gorgeous, adrenaline‑soaked cyberpunk romp that made me feel like I’d been dropped into a neon‑lit fever dream and handed a very loud gun. Combat is tight and brutal, the world is dense with detail, and every rooftop firefight feels cinematic equal parts “I planned this” and “how am I still alive?” What hooked me most was the atmosphere: towering megacorps, claustrophobic arcologies, and a soundtrack that pushes you forward even when your ammo doesn’t. The RPG systems give you real choices in builds and playstyle, and the loot loop actually rewards experimentation. Co‑op turns the chaos into pure joy coordinated pushes and frantic revives are the kind of moments you’ll brag about later. It’s not flawless some UI rough edges and occasional performance hiccups show up but they never kill the fun. If you want a stylish, punchy shooter with weighty combat, smart progression, and a world that oozes personality, The Ascent is absolutely worth your time. Strap in, aim true, and enjoy the fall into corporate hell.
Extremely buggy, lots of crashes, painfully slow walking speed.
Atmospheric arcade shooter with RPG-like elements makes for a solid experience. One aspect of the game that never got old was the detailed environments that perfectly capture the cyberpunk vibe. The gameplay, however, doesn't offer a lot of depth, but is fun nonetheless and doesn't outstay its welcome (~25 hours). Skill points distribution, simple crafting system, lots of guns to choose from, and ample cosmetics rounds out what was a very fun game.
Obra prima, jogabilidade excelente.
This is a fun game i enjoy every second plaing the only thing needs to be rework is the map thats all
Игра понравилась, но оказалось короткая. и игра часто зависала, подозрения что игра зависало при попытки сохранить прогресс.
