Ascenders: Beyond the Peak is a new turn-based strategy climbing game that draws thematic inspiration from Darkest Dungeon, where players lead a team and must make difficult decisions, including sacrificing members. Unlike other dexterity-focused climbing games, Ascenders emphasizes party composition, artifact collection, and reputation management. Developed by Ludogram, the game is slated for an early access launch on PC via Steam in Q3 2026.
