Previously tied to a rather vague 'December' release window, Sky: Children of Light now has a confirmed launch date on PS4. The free-to-play title, which is from Journey developer thatgamecompany, will float every so gently to Sony's last-gen system on the 6th December, 2022. Yep, that's next week!
Sky isn't a linear adventure like the aforementioned Journey. It's all about exploration, and the wholesome little interactions that you have with other players along the way. It's proven to be a popular title on mobile devices and Nintendo Switch, with total downloads topping 160 million.
When Sky arrives on Sony's systems, you'll be able to relive your memories of Journey with the aptly named 'Journey Pack', which includes Journey-themed cosmetics for your character. This is how Sky makes its money, by the way.
Will you be trying Sky for yourself next week? Make a stranger into a friend in the comments section below.

I’m a last-gen dude, so I’m on it. Although I stay away from online play, so I may miss the main selling point. Looks lovely, though.
Definitely. I played a bit on android but don't care for touch screen controls.
Loved Journey so I will check this out for sure.
wow, it only took them 3 years to port it over...
I feel like we've had a hundred spiritual successors at this point
Journey was great but I don't think this is for me
Started this on mobile but like @sentiententity didn't like touch controls. Happy to try again but on first try it absolutely didn't grab me like Journey, Flower or even Flow.
Journey, even after all this time, is still a sublime experience, even on the PS3. Still don't know why it stayed away from Vita?
Was disappointed that Sky didn't premiere on PS4 so it's nice to see it's here at last. Definite day one download for for me!
@sanderson72 it's free-to-play!
@Arasumian Yeah, only just realised! Doh!
Can it be played offline like Journey?? If not, I'd pass.
@Cycologist No, it’s a social-online experience. However you don’t have to talk to anyone. On my first playthrough, I beat the game alone. It wasn’t until after I started getting used to the multiplayer features.
Wasn't this to release today (Dec 6th). Still not showing on PSstore @ 12pm
