Ascesa is the first temporary and exclusive mode for Isonzo and brings a new gameplay based on climbing that has never been experienced in first-person shooters. Climb on the side of a mountain overhanging only with a picket, in what could be the most daring way of assaulting a enemy position seen during the war, while bullets and rocks fly away! During a game of Ascesa, 32 players must challenge themselves to maintain their position on the mountain or risk their lives to conquer it. Earn the special event medal at its completion before it ends! Ascesa is available until 24 April.
When you climb to such heights under these conditions, it is important to equip yourself properly. For this reason, along with Ascesa, theAltitude Units Pack.
