The project ended up not getting the traction it needed to survive during Closed Beta, and we had to make the hard call to sunset it in August 2023.[/p][p][/p][p]Evercore Heroes: Ascension is a different game set in the same universe as the original Evercore Heroes, but a different game experience entirely as a 1-3 player co-op hero roguelite. The game is fully playable and planned to enter early access the 24th of June 2025 with a full release planned in 2026.
