Delve into the realm of “Lost Skies” in the company of up to five companions! Unravel mysteries shrouded by time as you uncover remnants of advanced technology and hints from long-lost civilizations scattered throughout this fragmented world floating among the clouds. Construct a versatile and adaptable skyship, where you’ll reside and defend yourself against towering sky beasts called the Seraph. Navigate the treacherous heights using a realistic grappling hook, wingsuits, and gliders, all while savoring the liberty to venture into the limitless wonders that lie ahead.

In 2017, Bossa Games introduced the expansive multiplayer game world of “Worlds Adrift” during Early Access. Despite not making it to a full 1.0 release, the enthusiasm for this project and the realm they crafted remained undiminished and unforgotten. When the moment was ripe, Bossa chose to re-create on the solid foundation that “Worlds Adrift” had laid. Essentially, “Lost Skies” is the spiritual successor to that earlier game.

Speaking about the development of the game ‘Lost Skies’, Lead Game Designer Luke Williams expressed, “For a designer like me, working on ‘Lost Skies’ was a rare chance to revisit and enhance themes and gaming experiences. We aimed to amplify aspects that players adored in our previous game, ‘Worlds Adrift’. This includes exploring numerous floating islands, creating your own distinct skyship using the assorted precious materials and components you discover during your adventure. And to make things more thrilling, we’ve included colossal bosses that fill the sky. Over the past three years, we’ve collaborated closely with our community to ensure that the experience we’ve created is engaging and offers enduring enjoyment for many years to come.

The compact yet powerful team at Bossa Games, renowned for their physics-based hits like ‘Surgeon Simulator’ and ‘I Am Fish’, has put in countless hours to ensure that ‘Lost Skies’ offers an optimal experience for both returning ‘Worlds Adrift’ players and newcomers. Leveraging their past triumphs, they’ve transformed ‘Lost Skies’ into a playground brimming with entertaining and innovative mechanics. The grapple hook, particularly, has been acclaimed as the best grappling system by gamers, offering a smooth and satisfying experience that matches the quality expected from an AAA title.
