• 5 Years of The Ascent: 12 Million Players and What’s Next - 29 July 2026

  When we founded Neon Giant and set out to make The Ascent, we had a clear vision: to make games the way we wanted to make them. Without middle management, each individual owned their creative contribution. We were a small team, but you could feel the impact of every single member.

They were crafted by individuals (sometimes after heated discussions), always with passion. Many of you noticed the intense level of detail we poured into the small things: how each fiddly bit on a ship or market stall is modeled and textured, how every cutscene accounts for every friend in your multiplayer squad, and how we packed in as many sci-fi references as our 12-person team possibly could think up. We are incredibly proud of what we accomplished with The Ascent, and you showed up in droves t…
