Paul Neurath and Warren Spector were at the annual SXSW media conference in Austin this week to promote Underworld Ascendant. Today they participated in a hour-long panel discussion about Ascendant organized by PC Gamer and streamed live on Twitch. It was a decent enough discussion, but there wasn't much new there if you've been following the game's monthly development updates. They go over the design principles, features, development anecdotes, etc. What little I did find noteworthy about the panel you can read about here. It does start out with a brief new gameplay teaser, though.


The next week looks like it'll be a busy one for Ascendant. According to a forum post by OtherSide's community manager, there's going to be another trailer of some sort in the coming days, to be followed by a new monthly development update. It also reveals that the game will be reaching alpha within the next two months or so.
