Uncover the fate of humanity’s final outpost as you survive and explore a thrilling world of floating islands and soaring beasts. Brave the skies on your own or assemble a squadron of your friends as you scavenge scrap to engineer and upgrade flying vessels while bringing your airbase along for the journey.
AtmosFar is a sky-high odyssey set on an alien planet of floating islands, explorable by flying crafts and a mobile airbase. Uncover the fate of your collapsed colony as you travel through a soaring, open world of aerial wonders, exploring lush biomes and observing looming alien creatures on-foot and in the skies. Build your camp, upgrade your Cloud Cruiser, and bring your friends along for the ride in an out-of-this-world aerial odyssey.
AtmosFar is an open world adventure set high up in the skies of planet Tycos, an alien planet consisting of floating islands. The world of Tycos can either be explored on your own or together with friends, as it will support multiplayer co-op up to four people. Follow the path of the mysteries to reveal the truth about Tycos, or master the planet and its dangers in your own way. Whichever course you decide on, you will face a layered open world consisting of different islands, regions and biomes to explore.
At your disposal, you’ll have a range of different flying crafts, called Wasps. These come in different classes, each with their own set of unique features and traits. Furthermore, all Wasp classes are both upgradable and heavily customizable, meaning that you will have the freedom to upgrade each Wasp to unlock more features and design and style them in the way you prefer. In addition to the different Wasps, you’ll have a giant aeronautical base camp, located high up in the skies. The base camp, called the Cloud Cruiser, can be piloted to different locations and altitudes. It is big enough to dock your Wasps, hold storage room for scraps and craftables and even allows you to grow and harvest crops. The Cloud Cruiser offers you complete freedom to build, expand and tweak it after your plans, taste and adventures.
AtmosFar is a third person title and consists of challenges both in air and on ground. Atmosfar requires you to be swift and efficient in your decision-making, resourceful in your crafting and courageous on your adventures. On the other hand, you will have complete freedom to delve into the alien world, witness its natural phenomena and customize your Wasps and camp however you see fit. It’s all up to you to figure out the best ways to synchronize your resource management, vehicles and teamwork to reach as far into the skies as possible!
Originally planned for May 20th, Shueisha Games and Apog Labs today confirmed that AtmosFar will now launch in Early Access on Steam and Epic Games Store in a few months’ time.
Dear Vagabonds,
Today we have an important and tough announcement to make. As you may have already seen from the release date update on Steam, AtmosFar will now instead be launching into Early Access in a few months.
Despite our best efforts to reach the original May 20th launch date, we’ve sadly had to make the decision to take additional time to ensure that your first flight across Tycos is as smooth and free of turbulence as possible.
While AtmosFar today is fully playable, it’s not how we’d like you to experience it, and we can clearly see the positive impact that this extra development time will have on polish and refinement.
During production, the game’s ambition, scope and creative direction has grown a lot. Our vision has always remained the same, but development detours required to create a really great game can sometimes take more time than expected. Adding new gameplay mechanics and expanding the world, has taken a lot of additional time and resources and, as we’ve touched upon in our dev blogs, creating a game like AtmosFar is a balance of weighing the cost and time of production against the content and experience for the player.
Our Steam Next Fest demo earlier this year was an excellent way for us to focus in on which parts of ATMOSFAR were working well, and the parts that could do with some more refinement. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everybody who played the demo and gave us feedback. While we were excited that so many players saw the game’s potential, everybody here at the studio agrees that spending a few extra months preparing its departure will help elevate AtmosFar to new heights.
The winners of our recent Steam key competitions will, of course, still receive their prize when we enter Early Access.
Thank you for reading this, we can assure you that this is not a decision we have taken lightly. We are so incredibly proud and thankful for your support and we can’t wait for you to experience AtmosFar in a few months.
