Free-to-play combat RPG adventure
Ascend is a free-to-play role-playing game developed by Itai Parnes. It is a combat RPG that supports both solo and local co-op gameplay, where you face wave after wave of Physco-Bots enemies and powerful bosses in richly detailed, immersive environments.
Physco-Bot survival experience
Published by Revamp Games, Ascend is a combat-oriented RPG. You can go solo or team up in local co-op of up to four players, battle waves of enemies dubbed Physco-Bots, and face off against massive boss challenges. It features multiple characters with distinct styles—like Phase, TwinBlast, Kwang, and Dekker—each offering different combat dynamics.
However, its wave-based combat can feel repetitive over time. In addition, this role-playing game comes with surprisingly high minimum requirements for an indie title, requiring an i7 processor, 12GB of RAM, 6GB of available storage, and a GTX 700-series GPU, which can pose challenges for lower-end systems.
Action-packed RPG held back by repetition
Ascend delivers a free-to-play combat RPG experience with solo and local co-op options, varied characters, and immersive visuals. While battling waves of Physco-Bots and bosses offers action-packed gameplay, its repetitive mechanics and steep system requirements may limit its appeal, making it better suited for players with stronger PCs seeking quick co-op fun.
