Descent è un videogioco di fantascienza del genere sparatutto in prima persona sviluppato dalla e pubblicato dalla Interplay nel 1995 per MS-DOS. Successivamente uscì per Mac OS, PlayStation, Acorn Archimedes, PC-98. Il gioco fu uno dei primi e più efficaci a espandere gli standard degli sparatutto 3D tipici di Doom, dando al giocatore piena libertà di movimento in ambienti tridimensionali, con piena rotazione nei tre assi, senza vincoli dovuti alla gravità. Descent ha avuto due seguiti diretti e due spin-off: Descent 2 e Descent 3 e gli spin-off Freespace e Freespace 2. Un altro seguito chiamato Descent (inizialmente Descent: Underground) è ancora in sviluppo al 2019, sebbene sia stato disponibile in accesso anticipato nel 2015-2017.
