Underworld Ascendant released This Week

Welcome to the dungeon.

Underworld Ascendant, the fan-funded action RPG from independent game studio OtherSide Entertainment, co-founded by Paul Neurath (Ultima Underworld, Thief) and Warren Spector (Deus Ex, Epic Mickey), will descend onto Steam for PC this Thursday. Published by 505 Games, the game centres around the highly interactive dungeon world of The Stygian Abyss.

Players have been summoned to The Stygian Abyss by a mysterious figure, a dangerous and constantly evolving dungeon world imperiled by the looming threat of the beast Typhon. To save this world, and yours – you must overcome complex challenges, uncover lost secrets and gain favor with factions to maximize your knowledge and strength. Utilize your environment to stack the odds in your favour and devise the ideal plan to overcome the challenges you face or dive in and think on your feet.

Key features include:

  • A deeply immersive world: Enter a fully-realized dungeon realm, from the village of Marcaul to the Vault of Nyx and seven other large-scale levels to explore, each comprising a labyrinthine assembly of rooms, passages, halls and ruins connecting massive cavern complexes.
  • A hero to call your own: Tailor your skillset by combining more than 75 skills from three different archetypes (Combat, Stealth, Magic) that you can mix and match to develop a unique hero who is truly your own.
  • Constantly evolving underworld: Become embroiled in an epic plot, as rival factions vie for dominance in struggles that ebb and flow across the realm.
  • Emergent quests: Set out on more than 70 quests and numerous Side Bounties that reward you for avoiding detection, going unarmed and more.
