Averrion: Ascension

A dark co-op action RPG set in Ashmere, on the world of Averrion. Fight through cursed catacombs and haunted wilds with up to three friends, and build a hero worth the loot.

Art and assets shown are alpha placeholders and will be replaced.

About the game

Averrion: Ascension is a classic action RPG in the spirit of the genre's greats: an isometric world, six classes, deep skill trees and loot that keeps you coming back.

Start in Ravenhollow and descend into the catacombs beneath it, then push on to Thornwatch and the wilds of the Gloamwood. Between adventures, everyone on your realm gathers in Emberhold, a city shared by the whole realm.

The game is in open alpha. Play it in your browser or download it for Windows and Linux, with characters saved to your Averrion account. Art, balance, skills and story are all still changing, and characters may be wiped before launch.

Two acts, timed rifts, Nightmare and Hell difficulties, hardcore characters and seasons with their own leaderboards.

Classes

Choose your path

Warrior

Rage

Rage builds as you hit and get hit, and drains when the fighting stops. Keep swinging.

Mage

Mana

Fire, frost and lightning at range. Mana refills steadily, and Energy deepens the pool.

Druid

Mana

Earth, renewal and spirit beasts. Sturdy, with the magic to heal the party.

Necromancer

Souls

Every death nearby feeds you a soul. Spend them on bone, curses and the risen dead.

Ranger

Energy

Arrows, traps and beasts. A small pool that refills fast: fire, breathe, fire.

Priest

Faith

Holy light, shadow and the twilight between. Faith flows faster the more of your party you keep standing.

Alpha placeholder art. Where it applies, the artwork, styling and assets you see in Averrion: Ascension are temporary stand-ins. They let us build and test the game faster while our wonderful art team creates the real thing, and they'll be replaced as that work lands.

FAQ

Questions

When does Averrion: Ascension release?+

There's no date yet. The alpha is open now, and the newsletter and Discord will hear about launch first.

How do I join the alpha?+

Make an account at averrion.com (or continue with Lich Souls), then play in your browser or download the game for Windows or Linux.

Is there co-op?+

Yes. Up to four players can play together in a game, and everyone on a realm meets in Emberhold between adventures.

Will my alpha characters carry over?+

No. Every character is wiped before the official launch so nobody starts ahead, and alpha characters can be wiped along the way as big systems change.
