In Savant – Ascent Anniversary edition, players will once again take control of the mighty Alchemist, a mechanical wizard who seeks to grasp the power of a mysterious orb.

Savant – Ascent is a unique take on the twin-stick shooter genre, challenging players to make strategic use of their limited movement. As they battle their way up the tower, players will combine rapid and precise dodging and leaping to beat waves of enemies and blast them away with powerful spells. As they advance through the game, players may collect unique pieces of music, allowing them to create their own playlists while they fight for survival.

The Savant – Ascent Anniversary Edition is an entirely reworked version of the original 2013 game. The whole game’s visuals have been revamped, and it will feature brand new stages, skills, and abilities, as well as new enemies to battle. In addition, the remastered version includes a new soundtrack by music artist Savant.

An enhanced Survival Mode is also included in the Savant – Ascent Anniversary Edition, where enemies will gather in even larger numbers than in the original release. Moreover, while players are desperately fighting to survive for as long as possible, the game’s bosses will appear on their own, making the situation more challenging.

You may add Savant – Ascent Anniversary Edition to your Steam wishlist now to be notified when it releases for PC.
