About

"Astral Ascent," released in 2023, is an action-adventure indie game that invites players to immerse themselves in the enchanting realm known as the Garden. As one of four unique heroes, you'll navigate this astral prison, battling 12 formidable mystical bosses known as the Zodiacs. The game's standout feature is its lightning-fast combat, complemented by a diverse array of spells and companions that enhance the roguelite experience and unravel the unfolding story.

For players wondering about performance, "Astral Ascent" is designed to be accessible while still delivering an engaging experience. With a minimum GPU score of around 565, entry-level graphics cards can handle the game, allowing it to run well even on modest hardware. The minimum CPU score of approximately 2662 and 2 GB of RAM ensure that most modern PCs can achieve a playable FPS. However, for those aiming for higher graphics settings and smoother performance, a mid-range GPU is recommended.

With a solid rating of 90/100, "Astral Ascent" is a must-play for fans of action and adventure games.

Whether you're a seasoned player or new to the genre, this title promises an exciting journey filled with challenges and rewards.

Performance profile

November 2023 release. As a current-generation title, Astral Ascent pushes modern hardware — expect to need an RTX 40-series or RX 7000-series GPU to enjoy it at native 4K Ultra without leaning on upscaling.

Astral Ascent is a narrative-driven experience — a rock-solid 60 FPS is plenty. Prioritise resolution and image quality (AA, anisotropic filtering) over chasing high-refresh framerates.

Extremely light — Astral Ascent runs at 60 FPS 1080p on any integrated GPU (Intel Iris Xe, AMD Radeon Graphics) or a decade-old discrete card like the GTX 1050. A current-gen RTX 4060 pushes 4K Ultra without effort.

Storyline

The Zodiacs are 12 experienced guardians dispatched over 4 gorgeous worlds. They’ll bring to the battlefield unique attacks, abilities, and patterns, backstories to uncover, and reasons to be fighting you. Get yourself warned!
