The Ascent is the debut release of indie game studio Neon Giant, being a twin-stick Action-RPG shooter that explores the dystopian world of Veles. It has vibrant aesthetic and design that appealed to certain gamers, with neon lights contrasting the grimy futuristic location. The game was released last year, though not without some issues during launch. Most of these revolved around The Ascent's Xbox Game Pass version, but despite those technical hurdles, some players enjoyed what was available in the game.
The Ascent was signed to be a timed exclusive for the Xbox Series X, though it would also launch with a PC version last year.

With the game's timed exclusivity nearly coming to an end, developer Neon Giant announced that it will be coming to Sony's consoles very soon.
