Signal Studios first showed off its upcoming action RPG, Ascend: New Gods at E3. Though the E3 trailer didn't make the game's RPG nature clear, we're now covering it thanks to additional information that has been provided on the official website. Ascend: New Gods will be available on Xbox Live Arcade, and does not yet have an announced release date.

Ascend shares a number of aspects with its dark action RPG cousins in the Souls series, taking place in a brutal setting and allowing players to interact with each other's adventures in various ways. However, the game is centered around fighting for one of three new gods, battling the followers of other gods as well as powerful titan enemies. For more information, see the gameplay video below:
