Microsoft has announced Ascend: New Gods, an asynchronous multiplayer game set in a fantasy universe from Toy Soldiers developer Signal Studios.
Footage was shown at the manufacturer's E3 conference this evening. It's traditional sword and sorcery fare - skull helmets, goblins, giants, horns, angels, demons, hacking and/or slashing. Warriors teleport to the battlefield out of thin air, in what could be a hint as to Ascend's network functions.
We're still waiting to hear what gameplay involves. Signal's speciality is real-time strategy with a pinch of action, but this seems more actiony than strategic. More soon.
