Press release

'REALITY BREAK' ASCENSION UPDATE LAUNCHING JULY 28!

New Rewrite Types, Endless Progression, Ultimate Items, and More!

July 22nd, 2025 — Courtney Liessen, the solo indie dev behind Element Games, is pleased to announce that the first major content patch for her Roguelite ARPG Reality Break, the Ascension Update, will be available on July 28!

In the Ascension Update, you'll find a True Ending progression path that unlocks the all new Ultimate item tier, a system for Endless Progression, unique new Rewrite types, the ability to Preserve more unlocks across Profile Breaks, and much more!

In Reality Break, you're a mercenary who unwittingly becomes imbued with the power to alter reality. Use the Rewrite mechanic to change the fundamental nature of the gameplay: resize a weapon to fit your ship, upgrade items to unlock fantastic powers, increase the difficulty, add time to a ticking clock, and more!

 

Features:

  • New Progression Path - Unlock a new Talent progression path full of some of the most powerful upgrades in the game by achieving the game's True Ending!
  • Ultimate Items - Break the limitations of the item rarity itself to create Ultimate Items that cannot be found anywhere else!
  • Endless Progression - Unlock the option to continue increasing your Tier bonuses directly and permanently!
  • Lots More- Preserve your Specialist Upgrades across Breaks, analyze multiple items at once, Extract multiple Affix Fragments, and Challenge Bosses as often as you wish via repeatable Boss Random Missions, with a new custom Boss Health UI!
