The Ascent is a cyberpunk-themed action role-playing video game developed by Swedish indie game studio Neon Giant and published by Curve Digital[2] for Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One on 29 July 2021. It was developed using Unreal Engine 4 by a team of 11 people and is Neon Giant's debut in the industry.[3] The game received mixed reviews from critics upon its release, with praise for its visuals, combat, animation, and sound-design but criticism for the emphasis on grinding, technical issues and noticeable lack of polish.

The Ascent is presented from a top-down (isometric) view overlooking the character(s). It is a twin-sticked shooter, which includes the ability to aim both high and low on enemy targets, allowing the player to differentiate between shooting enemies closer or further away.

The game takes place within an arcology in a futuristic dystopian world known as Veles, controlled by a powerful megacorporation called "The Ascent Group". Players assume control of a worker enslaved by the company. After the mysterious collapse of The Ascent Group, the arcology descends into a chaotic free-for-all pitting districts, syndicates and rival corporations against each other for control. The player's role is to stop other factions from seizing control and uncover the mystery behind the demise of The Ascent Group.

***In-game stutter was caused by the game and not the hardware.
Most people have also noted this stuttering issue.
Apparently, The Ascent is not fully optimized yet.
Would have to wait for further patches to address that.***
