Toy Soldier developers Signal Studios had its new project unveiled at Microsoft's E3 conference, with the fantasy brawler Ascend: New Gods coming to Xbox Live Arcade next year.

The trailer revealed Ascend to be a brawler set against a fantasy backdrop, with the player scaling hulking enemy characters in a fashion not dissimilar to Shadow of the Colossus - or, interestingly enough given its multiplayer component, to God of War: Ascension.

No other details were unveiled at the conference, but expect them to emerge as the show gets underway later this week.
