Forever Skies launched for Xbox Series X|S as a Play Anywhere title
Developed by Far From Home, Forever Skies has launched for Xbox Series X|S as a Play Anywhere title.

The first-person post-apocalyptic survival game depicts planet Earth ravaged by an ecological disaster, sending clouds of toxic dust into the sky. A small remnant of civilization survives aboard a space station, in search of a cure for a mysterious illness.

Players take on the role of a scientist sent back to the planet's surface, challenged with upgrading and customizing a mobile high-tech airship to scavenge resources.


The Original Soundtrack by Dead Island composer Paweł Błaszczak is hosted on Steam, featuring "futuristic synths and haunting melodies that capture a ruined, desolate world." The album is streaming on Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

The composer comments, via the Steam store page:
"Since Forever Skies is a game about isolation, apocalypse and mankind’s downfall and the need to start building again there were a few that got me into this mood. Films like - The Martian, Annihilation, Prospect and The Book of Eli and shows such as Dark or even certain episodes of Love, Death + Robots."
Forever Skies is also available for PlayStation 5 and Windows PC through Steam, verified for use with the Steam Deck. The newly launched 'Final Echoes' update overhauls the power management system aboard the airship, making generating and maintaining electricity a core strategy for survival.


From the Steam store page:
Forever Skies is a first-person post-apocalyptic survival game. Play it solo or in coop and return to Earth, ravaged by an ecological disaster. Build, fly, upgrade and customize your high-tech airship. Craft tools, and scavenge resources to survive. Face dangers on the surface and hunt for viruses to cure a mysterious illness.
