The Ascent

Curve Digital’s upcoming cyberpunk action RPG The Ascent has been looking impressive on multiple fronts in all that we’ve seen of it so far, and that’s true for the game’s visuals as well. Already looking like a technical showpiece on consoles, the game is going to look even better on PC, especially with recent announcements in mind.

Nvidia has announced that on PC, The Ascent will feature support for DLSS, as well as for ray-traced shadows and reflections. A brief trailer showcasing the tech in action has also been released, and the results are impressive. The cyberpunk aesthetic in particular is well-suited to the wonders of ray-tracing, and The Ascent definitely seems to be making good use of it. Take a look below.

The Ascent launches for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC later this month, on June 29. You can get more details on the game in our recent interview with creative director and Neon Giant co-founder Tor Frick through here.
