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
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.

visualmente es espectacular pero a nivel de jugabilidad y mecánicas me aburrió al poco tiempo, no lo jugaría más.
"there are three types of games the ones that are bad the ones that are decent and the ones that are absolute cinema (cue the peak phonk)"

gem gud, u have bad pc
it's been three years since a game made me this eager to leave work, pleaseeeee give this a shot if you're into shooters thank you very much
Amazing visual style and design(except red color dominating the screen). I like the idea and I’d love to explore the world and the story of the game, but i’m tired of killing thousands of identical mobs just to get to the next location. The NPCs are useless they may as well not exist, their only purpose is to catch a stray bullet. Most of the world is practically empty, it exists as a chore. Character’s death is meaningless, all deaths are meaningless and have no consequences in the game. Character progression doesn’t change the game, leveling up feels like a formality. It feels like all game mechanics exist to annoy me.
A ver, la ambientación, iluminación, diseños, música, sonidos... todo ello genial. Y me jode tener que dejar una reseña negativa porque el juego me gusta... Peeeero: -Muchos crasheos. -Curva de dificultad muy loca. De repente muchos bichos, muy duros y yo soy muy manco. -Jefe final del dlc bugueado, impidiendo acabar la última misión del juego. Y por lo que he leído, ya lleva así 4 años... En todas las plataformas. Habrá que esperar a ver si arreglan todos los problemas que tiene el juego con el "legacy patch" que quieren meter en noviembre y más contenido futuro...
УГ. Невыносимо скучная и однообразная игра. Пушки одинаковые, разницы толком нет. Модельки ГГ ужас полный, женский персонаж так вообще - на мужское тело прикрутили женскую голову, короче повесточку отработали.
It is good!
this game knows how to party!
Wow, really thought this was more stable by now. Guess it's another abadoned game where the devs went 'meh .. good enough'. Can't recommend this mess, not even in a sale. Fun with friends but it constantly crashes: - while fighting - while walking - while shopping There's also dents in the world where you can fall under the map or get stuck in the environment. Your deaths or resets don't matter though, making it easy to get back to where the game kicked you out.
