The developer of the acclaimed exploration-driven game Journey has released a new game for mobile users that's now available worldwide. It's called Sky: Children of the Light, and it's currently out for iOS devices with a release on other platforms including Android devices, the Apple family including Macs and tvOS, PCs, and consoles "coming soon," according to the game's site.
Previously released in a beta version that was known as "Sky: Light Awaits," the full game is out now as of Thursday, according to thatgamecompany, the creator of the new title. An announcement was shared on Twitter along with a trailer to preview some of what the game involves.
