A once-great civilisation is crumbling, teetering on the edge of collapse. The last living colossus, slowly dying, its life force siphoned away. You are sent to end its suffering and perhaps the world it still holds together.
Ascent of the Last Colossus
SteamAscent of the Last Colossus is a story-driven, exploration and action game focusing on expressive traversal and game-play choices. Inspired by immersive sims and souls-likes.

Ascent of the Last Colossus follows the story of a being sent from beyond the stars, tasked with freeing the last surviving colossus. What was once a world where all worshiped the colossi, is now a world where only one remains, being drained of its power to sustain a civilisation destined to fail. Uncover the reasons for this civilisations downfall, and the story of the last living colossus.

Experience expressive combat that can be approached from many directions. Whether you like to go in loud, or quiet, we want players to play their own way. Ascent of the Last Colossus takes heavy inspiration from both souls-likes and immersive sims, hoping to blend combat in a way that encourages player experimentation!

Throughout the game you will unlock a variety of movement enhancements, allowing you to reach new areas you once were unable to. Movement goes hand in hand with combat, allowing players to approach combat scenarios at all angles. Ascent of the Last Colossus focuses heavily on verticality and movement puzzles as you make your way to the top of the last colossus.
