After over three years in Early Access, Black Skylands - the top-down shooter is preparing for a landing on all consoles on August 3, 2023. Join the fearless pilot, Eva, and her loyal moth Luma as they soar through the skies on a mission to save their home from dangerous enemies.

With the freedom to customize airships, gather treasures, and solve mind-bending puzzles; players will enjoy Black Skylands, and its fresh take on the top-down action-adventure genre.
For those who have already delved into Black Skylands during Early Access, the game has made great strides, receiving four significant updates that have improved the overall player experience while also expanding the game’s story. One of the latest features allows weapon and ship upgrades, from crossbows to rocket launchers. With nearly 30 modification options each, players can customize their arsenal to suit their unique playstyle. However, it is crucial to be strategic when modifying weapons and airships, as battles will take place both on land and in the skies.

Gather resources and upgrade your flying base: Create powerful artifacts, tinker in the workshop, and construct buildings
