Oslo, Norway – November 13, 2024 – Publisher Funcom® and developer Astrolabe® Interactive Inc. are proud to announce that Aloft®, the co-op sandbox survival game set in a world of floating islands, will embark into Early Access on January 15, 2025. As one of the most played demos in Steam’s Next Fest in June, and with over 300.000 wishlists, Aloft is poised to soar.
Having already garnered praise from players across several demos, Aloft’s solid foundation is a huge and wind-shaped world in which you can transform any floating island you want into your personal skyship, outfitting it with sails, rudder, helm, and everything it needs to harness the winds.
Enjoy the zen of building and crafting, the satisfaction of cleansing the corruption from islands’ ecosystems, and the thrill of exploring serene and stormy skies, all while uncovering the mysterious past that has rendered the world as it is. As you travel, collect seeds to plant, animals to nurture, and ancient technology to progress.
Brave the elements alone or band together in groups of up to 8 players, each of you capable of bringing your skyship with you when joining another player’s world. Cluster together and you can light up the night sky with an entire airborne village.
Throughout Early Access, Aloft will expand with brand-new game mechanics, biomes to explore, challenges to overcome, items to craft, and much more.
Aloft will enter Early Access on January 15, 2025, and can be wishlisted now on Steam. The free demo is playable right now.
