Developer Far From Home has announced that is partnering up with Sony to bring Forever Skies to console in 2024. This includes both development support and funding.
“So, at the end of PC Early Access when we’re ready to release the full game, we’ll be launching it on PlayStation 5 for consoles,” said gameplay lead Andrzej Blumenfeld. “Worry not though, this will not affect the ongoing development or release of the Steam version which will come out at the same time.”
Forever Skies is currently in early access on PC, and the partnership with Sony will not impact it whatsoever. It will make its console debut on PlayStation 5 once the early access period is completed. The final version of Forever Skies will also support both single-player and co-op up to four players.
Forever Skies was also initially announced for Xbox Series X|S back in 2022, but now it seems like that version will come later after the PlayStation 5 one.
In a recent earnings call, Sony said that it wouldn’t be releasing any first-party games from major franchises until April 2025 at the earliest. In the meantime, it looks like third-party console timed exclusives like Forever Skies are filling in the gap.
