Here’s your look at the Ascenders: Beyond The Peak announcement trailer for this upcoming exploration roguelite blending turn-based climbing and expedition management, with rope physics, and permanent consequences. Ascenders: Beyond The Peak will be available in Steam Early Access in Q3 2026.

In Ascenders: Beyond The Peak, the difference between life and death is your ability to read the mountain and choose your next move wisely. As the team leader, players will face moral choices as they climb a mountain cursed with mysterious Lovecraftian threats hidden within the rock — every loss irrevocably reshaping your roster. Every expedition is a desperate attempt to reach the summit, understand the forces shaping the mountain, and return alive with the knowledge and artefacts you need for your next ascent. At all costs, your mission is to forbid them from falling into the wrong hands. Death after death, players will learn to turn the environment into a weapon, mastering each ascent through hard-earned roguelite progression.

What’s unique about Ascenders: Beyond The Peak is that your team is physically connected. The rope system creates unique positioning challenges and opportunities to secure your team, anchor dangerous climbs, pull a companion out of danger, or drag them into it.

We poured a full weekend into Songs of Glimmerwick’s demo content and came away wanting more in a way that honestly reminded us of discovering Stardew Valley for the first time as a young adult, or (further back) of being a kid stumbling into Harvest Moon for the first time and realizing we could just live in this little world that we’re contributing to. Except, Songs of Glimmerwick pleasantly surprised us with somehow more layers of whimsy and fairytale wonder than either of those, and it makes us feel like I’ve only turned the first page of something sprawling.
