Bossa Games and Humble Games (does that company still exist…?) have finally revealed all the gameplay from their open-world cooperative survival adventure game.

Lost Skies is a cooperative survival adventure for one to six players set among the clouds in a vast sky of floating islands. Find and craft ancient technology, build your own skyship, brave fierce storms, and battle giant threats that lurk beyond the horizon. Embark on an adventure through the remnants of ancient civilizations. Uncover the mystery of their demise and use their advanced technology to aid your journey. Navigate a shattered world ravaged by storms, revel in lands reclaimed by nature, and confront the colossal beings that still roam the skies and brought about humanity’s destruction.

Flow effortlessly through the broken landscapes of the sky with a physics-based grappling hook. Climb, glide, and fly as you use your own creativity for both traversal and dynamic combat. Enter a seamless world where you can travel freely to any landmark you see on the horizon. With a vast world to explore, you’ll need to build your own skyship to navigate the open skies. Lost Skies’ unique ship crafting system allows you to intricately shape your ship’s hull and freely place parts where you want, taking into account the quality and weight of the materials you use. Your skyship is not only your home in the clouds, it is also your warship, carrying you into battle and through treacherous weather.

The Sky Ship is an evolution of a survival base that you can take with you and use to battle the elements and creatures. Lost Skies is always better with friends, so there’s a focus on all things cooperative and collaborative, but it’s also possible to play the game solo if you’re up for the challenge. These shattered lands offer the opportunity to explore a wild frontier, sailing through the clouds, exploring fascinating ruins, reclaiming strange technology and taking down colossal creatures – the freedom to reach anywhere you can see on the horizon.

Believing that survival shouldn’t take over the gameplay, Lost Skies is what the developers like to call a “survival-lite” experience, where survival elements serve the greater journey of discovery. Using the extremely powerful Island Creator, players will be able to add to the world of Lost Skies and share their creations with other players, creating an ever-expanding frontier to explore.

Lost Skies is coming to PC, no release date yet.
