Sky: Children of the Light is a cross-platform, socially-oriented adventure title from ThatGameCompany (creators of Journey) and published by NetEase. Launched in 2019 and consistently receiving seasonal content updates, it maintains a strong, dedicated mobile and console player base, especially in Asian markets. Its unique multiplayer instance system enables shared world experiences but does not reach the persistent, large-scale MMO threshold. Daily active players are estimated around 150,000 due to ongoing popularity and global releases.
