The Ascent officially launches today on PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S consoles. But before you get to play it, you should probably spend a little time reading what critics think of the game. The Ascent is an isometric shooter RPG set in a cyberpunk metropolis where mega-corporations rule a world, one where everyone works for them in a form of indentured servitude, paying off debt they owe to those same corporations for bringing them to Veles. The Ascent is a stunning looking game, with punchy combat and solid gunplay to back it up. It’s one Xbox Game Pass members have been particularly looking forward to, and the reviews are in.
