Ascendant is a Social FPS PvP game with a brand new gamemode that, at its core, is an evolution of capture the flag mixed with an extraction shooter. Several teams fight to extract at least one of a few key items–a precious resource called Amber–to be victorious. Someone is going home empty handed, as there are fewer items than teams, leading to more action and desperation as the game plays out.

Both casual and veteran FPS gamers will find Ascendant easy to pick up and play as our design has given equal effort to familiar foundations and everything on top that makes it unique. Players can precisely customise their weapons and loadouts, leading to a variety of tactical approaches that result in a truly diverse range of playstyles. The game map changes from session to session and no two games will ever be the same. What might help you execute complete domination one session won’t guarantee success in the next therefore rewarding creative, bold, and reactive tactics over repetitive ones.

When you aren’t battling it out, we have emphasised customisation and social features learnt from years of game development in order to promote creative and vivid player expression. The traditional menu system of static screens has been replaced with a social lobby, called the home shade, where interactions for customisation and progression are key parts of the world. Players will make connections with other players and NPCs that will strengthen both the community around Ascendant and immersion into the game world itself.
