You play as a Child of Light exploring a fallen kingdom overtaken by darkness. Across seven realms, you uncover memories and seek to restore light to the world.
Explore landscapes on foot and in flight, find hidden Winged Light to strengthen your flying, and free trapped spirits to return them to the constellations. Quests and puzzles provide goals along the way.
Sky is an online shared-world adventure: meet other travelers, offer light, and interact through emotes, hand-holding, and chat. You can also collect outfits, decorate a personal Nest, leave messages for others, and take part in seasonal quests and events.
Positive reviews often highlight the beautiful environments, soothing music, and the pleasure of flying and exploring. Players who enjoy the social side describe warm encounters and lasting friendships, while some also value the game as a relaxing place to spend time. Even critical reviews sometimes praise the initial journey, atmosphere, or connections made with other players.
Restore light to a world overcome by darkness, uncovering memories that shine light on a fallen kingdom.
Free trapped spirits across seven realms, return them to the constellations, and bring life back to Sky.
Take flight across beautiful, mystical landscapes, discovering hidden secrets, trapped spirits, and Winged Light to strengthen your flight.
Dive and glide for an enchanting flight experience with easy maneuverability that brings a sense of engagement, wonder, and curiosity. Explore on your own or journey with friends who guide the way.
Sky invites creativity and interactivity with other players. Create your own personal Nest, a cozy space to call home and decorate with an assortment of collectible furniture and placeables that reflect your style.
Visit friends’ Nests for inspiration, or craft shared spaces out in the open world where other players can gather and enjoy your creation.
Along your journey, discover messages left behind by fellow travelers to guide and encourage you. We invite you to write and place your own messages for others to discover.
Sky is an online multiplayer experience, where friendships can form naturally, if you choose. Offer your light to fellow travelers, and interact through emotes, chat, hand-holding, and more.
Sky is designed as a safe, welcoming place for everyone. While the world beyond your Nest is shared, chat is only visible with friends or in designated areas – like benches – for open interaction.
With millions of players across the world to connect with, built-in translation lets you communicate with anyone. As you explore Sky’s vast realms, your friends will be a guiding light, and you can call for help along your journey.
Self-expression and customization are at the heart of Sky. Collect hundreds of unique cosmetic items. From capes that let you soar through the skies, to glasses, masks, hairstyles, boots, and more, you can mix and match to create millions of outfit combinations that express your Sky Kid.
With a new Season every three months, and shorter events throughout the year, there’s always fresh content to discover, explore with friends, and collect items from. Whether you’re celebrating the holidays, getting spooky in October, or enjoying vibrant seasonal sets, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
The world of Sky is ever-changing and dynamic. Beyond our regular Seasons and events, you can participate in special, limited-time live experiences every year, such as our world-record breaking concert with AURORA, where thousands of players come together in real time.
These events celebrate community, offering interactive elements, fun surprises, and shared moments that make the world feel alive. You’ll never feel alone, experiencing awe, wonder, and emotional depth that redefine what a game can be.
Sky has the most wholesome and welcoming community in gaming. Strangers become friendly guides, playing an instrument can lead to a band, and puzzles blocking your journey are solved with teamwork. Friends can hold your hand and lead you through the realms – no journey or mystery has to be faced alone.
The community is also incredibly active on our official Discord, social media channels, and on the Steam forums, bringing players together around shared adventures and creativity. Sky and its community go hand-in-hand. We appreciate our community, and we’re confident you'll enjoy becoming a part of it.
