Starting July 21st, a brand new adventure will unfold within the Sky universe: The Season of The Two Embers - Part 1. This unforgettable Season blends a cinematic experience, immersive gameplay, and unforgettable storytelling, all set in the festive atmosphere of a global film festival!
The Lore You’ve Been Waiting for Has Arrived
This Season—one of our most anticipated yet—unfolds alongside part one of Sky: The Two Embers, which follows the tale of an orphan chasing hope as darkness closes in on the world around them. Told without dialogue and designed to be watched together with friends in-game alongside new playable in-game content, this animated origin story reveals the events that set Sky’s world on its path to ruin, in our most immersive storytelling format yet.
Don’t Just Watch the Story: Live It!
This Season brings players into Sky’s origin story not just as observers, but as participants. Through a one-of-a-kind experience, Seasonal Quests are paired with each chapter of Sky: The Two Embers - Part 1. Dive deeper into the adventure of The Two Embers with each quest, walking, creating, and standing strong alongside the people who lived in the final years of the kingdom.
From learning how to survive in this bygone kingdom to witnessing pivotal moments that echo through Sky’s past and present, the story unfolds on two fronts: the silver screen and the realms of Sky. And as the Season progresses, so too will the stakes grow more serious as the story shifts in unexpected, powerful ways.
A Friendship That Guides You
Later into the Season as the story progresses, you’ll have the chance to build a unique relationship with one of the Season’s most memorable characters. The gentle, expressive manatee responds to your actions and stands by your side throughout the journey.
More than a helper, the manatee is a friend, an allegory of trust, empathy, and the quiet strength it takes to be there for someone, even when the world falls apart. Your bond evolves over time, and you will notice how the manatee’s behavior reflects the growing connection between you both.
A World Brimming With Story
This Season’s setting is one of Sky’s most dynamic and expansive environments to date. The bustling market village you’ll explore is alive with Spirits, vibrant with activity, and full of hidden moments to discover. Whether it’s a whispered conversation, a look exchanged between characters, or a child disappearing into the crowd, every detail invites curiosity.
The Season’s cosmetics also reflect this rich narrative, drawing inspiration directly from the people and cultures you’ll meet. Some of us have already fallen in love with meaningful pieces like the manatee accessory and earrings.
Sky: The Two Embers - Part 1 is a first glimpse into a larger animated feature. Each chapter premieres weekly starting July 21st. Together, the film and game content form one of the most ambitious storytelling experiences Sky has ever offered—a first-of-its-kind blend of cinema, play, and emotional connection.
We can’t wait to share this journey with you. See you in the skies!
