PlayXBLA writes: Ascend: New Gods, which will be Free-To-Play on the Xbox LIVE Arcade, forces an epic battle for supremacy. We’re so excited for this game that we wanted to share some great new prints!
GR said, "Remember Ascend: New Gods? Not too many people do. Signal Studios, or better known as those who brought you the Toy Soldiers franchise on Xbox Live, introduced the action title to the world during Microsoft’s 2012 E3 press conference. The game has been slated for a 2013 launch date, but little has been seen of the title, which will allow players to “wage war for your God as a brutal Caos warrior on a unique journey to Ascension,” since last year. However, a new trademark filed by the Xbox maker may be a sign that the game has taken on a new moniker."
They've also dropped the trademark for Ascend: New Gods, seemingly. Could be just the new title.

Nope. Then it would hailed as another quality exclusive before people even played it ...lol
If it was a PS4 exclusive it would be looked at as this unique next coming of Christ.
having your name aasociated with playstation does add a lot of prestige to a game titel while having your name asociated with xbox can do some serious damage. this is fact
If its a great game, its a great game. A turd name doesnt stain a great game, right?
I wonder if this is one of the titles where the rumors of "MS games being six months behind" comes from?
Whatever it does I hope they keep the gameplay of "multiplayer-focused, turn-based strategy game". Games nowadays could use more of a variety and I have always been a fan of turn based games.
This game was announced as a Free To Play game on the Xbox 360 at last years E3. Also, I wouldn't buy into rumors that every single Microsoft studio is 6 months behind, even the worst luck and biggest coincidence wouldn't account for all of their studios being that far behind.
MTB: While at PAX East this year I had a chance to get my hands on Ascend: New Gods. I had seen the trailer, but other than that didn’t know what to expect. I am happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised by what the game has to offer.
Paste: "Yes, it’s free-to-play, but don’t sleep on Ascend: New Gods. The latest effort from Signal Studios, the developer responsible for the excellent Toy Soldiers games, is an interesting experiment in both design and business models."
