Developer Far From Home announced that the upcoming first-person survival game Forever Skies will launch in Early Access on June 22 for PC via Steam. The PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions will launch alongside the full game when it releases. The Early Access version will last for about a year, will lack some features of the full game, but will ship with “plenty of mechanics and activities to play within a vast world ready to be explored.” Features such as co-op play will be added once the full game launches. A release date trailer was also released.
