EB: Ascendant is an indie game, and it shows with it’s cool original art style that looks like something out of a story book. Unfortunately, at this point in time, that’s just not enough to make the game good, and it already looks like it plays kind of choppy.

Ascendant is a new squad based shooter from PlayFusion, featuring ever-changing maps and the need to adapt tactics on the fly.

The Outerhaven goes hands-on with PlayFusion's Ascendant, the upcoming PVP First Person Shooter that requires players to adapt to survive. Taking inspiration from the 1980s as well as some other games and adding some ideas of their own, PlayFusion has crafted a fun-to-play competitive title that has a lot of potential.
