Story
ASCENT: MASKLINGS is a 3D action roguelite about three masked fighters climbing a shifting rift. Choose a role, survive an eight-area expedition, and confront the Swarm Heart. Lumi chains swift melee attacks and dashes. Bram holds the front line with his shield. Nox controls enemies from a distance with rune magic.

Three difficulties — Story, Standard and Ascendant. Shards you earn on expeditions are banked to your account. Also at launch — a vault to spend shards on permanent upgrades, four new blessings, the Rift Warden on...
