Developer Neon Giant has also shared a new video that showcases the development and highlights a few features coming to The Ascent when it is released on Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, and PC in 2021. It will also be available for Xbox Game Pass subscribers at launch.We featured The Ascent as our IGN First game for May 2020 and took a look at gameplay, concept art, how it originally became an Xbox Series X launch exclusive, and much more.
The Ascent has you taking on the role of an indentured worker who will dive deep into ‘The Ascent Group’ arcology, a self-contained corporate-run metropolis stretches high into the sky and is filled with “creatures from all over the galaxy.”
It’s an adventure that can be played solo or with up to four players in co-op modes and is targeting 60 fps and full 4K support on Xbox Series X alongside “amazing gameplay performance for the new generation of console players.”
