About

I want to be upfront with the community: the current version of Skye has faced technical issues, incomplete systems, and design challenges that have prevented it from fully delivering on its original vision.
Because of this, a full rework of Skye: The Misty Isle is currently underway under the name Skye: Rebirth. Skye: Rebirth is not a patch or minor update, but a ground-up reimagining of the game — rebuilding core systems, world structure, visuals, combat, and survival mechanics to fully realise that vision. This includes substantial changes to gameplay flow, progression, and overall quality, informed by everything we’ve learned during development so far.
If you already own Skye, you will not need to repurchase the game. When Skye: Rebirth is complete, it will replace the current version on Steam, and existing owners will automatically retain access.
This page represents the original foundation of the project, while Rebirth is its future.
We’ll be sharing development updates, features, and progress as Rebirth takes shape. Thank you for your patience, your feedback, and for standing with us as we reforge Skye into the experience it was always meant to be.

Cant wait to see the finished product ! so far i like what i see.
Having been involved since pre-alpha i have seen the fantastic amount of effort, dedication and passion poured into this game to get it where it is today. Yes, there is a lot work to be done fixing issues related to performance and stability (remember this is using UE5) along with building the story and quest lines to add to the survival elements. That said when I've focused on the survival and exploration elements of this game i find myself getting lost in a world that promises beauty and intrigue in equal measure. The demo gives ample glimpses into what this game can be and with an active development team and community i truly believe this game will get to where it needs to be. Early access is often very ambiguous and in this instance do not expect a beta level version of the game but more alpha stage. Personally the game shows huge potential and i believe the move to EA will benefit the future development with input from the community.
Awesome game, cant wait to get more hours into this ! Been waiting for this release for a while and this team being small have created a class game. Especially being scottish and visiting skye yearly. Awesome to see the landscape come together and also the history ✌️
€: 7th March What can i say? this Abandonded Dead Early Access SCAM stay on Steam - As i already SAID in the SCAM SHEME METHODE Mentioned down there already in January ! - ITS ALWAYS THE SAME :( https://steamcommunity.com/app/1710180/eventcomments/594016877193265050?snr=2_9_100003_ AVOID THIS DEVELOPER ! --------------------------------------- Original: Release of this Early Access (Scam) was June 2024 with 3 Updates in June and in Dec 2024 there was the "Removal Announcement" https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1710180/view/604142324070482881 its the Typical "Early Access Scam Scheme" - Release Early Access - make some Updates - Wait some Month - Take the Money Run Away Steam? Do Something Against this! [quote] On paper, the launch was a success: only 16% of indie teams make it to release, and we sat in the top 20% of best-selling games on Steam. Yet, the harsh reality is that only the top 8% of games on the platform generate sustainable revenue. The reality post-launch is that none of the team has been able to be paid, myself included and we have not generated enough income to cover the personal expenses incurred during development let alone sustain a future for the business. [/quote] Developer Ran out of Money pretty Short after the Release of this EARLY ACCESS. https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/store/earlyaccess so ignoring this part: [quote] What Early Access Is Not Early Access is not a way to crowdfund development of your product. You should not use Early Access solely to fund development. If you are counting on selling a specific number of units to complete your game, then you need to think carefully about what it would mean for you or your team if you don't sell that many units. Are you willing to continue developing the game without any sales? Are you willing to seek other forms of investment? [/quote] One Last Update hit on December (Short before the Announcement) Game got not removed so far. MAYBE the Developer now think "Interest in Game is Back, We Back in Business) so the Next Step of this "Early Access Scam Scheme" is: Around 2 Weeks after the Removal Announcement, or Last Sale (Steam Refund Time): - We Not Remove this Game because of Renewal interest - bring 1 or 2 Updates - Run Away again with the Money. And Another Unfinished Abandoned Dead (Early Access) Game is rotting slowly on Steam, Generating Passive Money for Valve.
Although it has bugs, it has potential. i played for 15 mins and done the following - Punched a horse - Punched a man - killed a rabbit way an axe - went fishing (caught nothing) - punched a horse again can see me investing more time in this - game needs time as well but excited to see development
I'm leaving a positive review because this game has SO much potential and I will be watching, streaming and playing while they create what looks like it's going to a beautiful game. I do wish that the initial release was a bit more polished, but as it's an early access game, I was not disappointed.
The game is very raw, in fact there are some problems there and here but I love how the graphics, easy battle, easy hunting, easy survival. I couldn't get more details of the game due to what it is provided within the game but I think if all this stuff settle it's a good game considering the graphics and easy manuever , I would recommend to check it out,
It's janky, but then it's an early access Alpha - always about supporting the game reach the vision of what it could be, not expecting a great experience right off the bat. To the dev's credit they have made that vision clear - the open world forest took me right back to the hours spent wondering around just vibing in the landscape of Skyrim and the Witcher games, combined with base crafting mechanics. A cozy environment-centred gameplay loop which I enjoyed even in its present state and if they can fully harness the impressive graphical possibilities we've seen in Unreal5 could be quite something once the world is fully realised. So it's got good DNA even if it needs work right now - I for one would love to see that vision come together.
In aller Offenheit, es geht mir nicht um das Geld - trotzdem habe ich eine Rückerstattung beantragt. Das Spiel hat sicherlich Potential, wenn die Animationen, die Grafik und viele andere Dinge stimmen wrüden. Ein Beispiel: Man nimmt einen Stein auf - und noch nicht einmal eine "halbe" Sekunde braucht es, dann ist das Teil bei einem im Inventar. Die Figur läuft als wären Millionen schießwütende Russen hinter einem her, fast schon auf Formel 1 Niveau. Ich behalte das Spiel sehr gerne im Auge, nur heute ist es noch keine EUR 20,- wert. Nochmals: Kein Game-Bashing. Wenn man das Obige einmal als "gelöst" betrachten würde, dann wäre die Grafik auf dem Niveau von Life Is Feudal .-.aus dem Jahr 2017. Ich wünsche den Entwicklern viel Erfolg und wenn das Spiel fertig ist, dann werde ich es mit Sicherheit kaufen.
If you are looking to explore the realistic villages and mountains while experiencing a very urgent survival crafting need than this is your game. unfortunately im not sure if there is a narrative or not. but id like to try me some Skye: Farming to see what their crops look like.
