'Skyworld' Launches Lost Worlds DLC, Kicks Off Free Weekend

by Rainier on May 17, 2018 @ 12:37 p.m. PDT

Skyworld combines classic turn-based strategy gameplay, deck building and fast-paced real-time battles in a unique strategy blend fully reimagined for VR.

As the sole heir to the throne, you alone can restore your father’s dragon empire to its former glory. Armed with the king’s scepter, powered by the most powerful magic in the world, and with the knowledge of the magic book of spells at your fingertips, it is up to you to recapture and reunite the Skyworlds; shards of the world broken off by a coven of evil witches. The quest to redeem your father’s legacy begins… Can you tame dragons?

Armed with the world’s most powerful magic tools, you must build and lead an army strong enough to tame powerful dragons and bring back together your father’s empire.

In Skyworld, players manage their economy, build and lead royal armies, and have to master powerful dragons to restore their father's empire to its former glory. Armed with the king's scepter, powered by the most powerful magic in the world, and with the knowledge of the magic book of spells at their fingertips, it is up to them to tame the mighty dragons and bring back all Skyworlds from the hands of evil.

Skyworld brings back the basic, fun gameplay of beloved TBS classics with bite-sized matches, but in a groundbreaking room-space VR experience, developed from the ground up to take full advantage of HTC and Valve's revolutionary Full Room Scale 360 Degree Solution with Tracked Controllers on HTC Vive.


Skyworld - Lost Worlds DLC launches today in the form of a free update to the game and adds two all-new playable Skyworlds as well as a range of new avatar masks to the game. Will you reminisce times past and travel back to an era in which Pharaohs reign in the Desert world or brave perilous ruins of lands scarred by Mother Nature herself in the scorching hot Volcano world?

From today through Sunday, VR gamers and strategy fans play Skyworld and its newly released Lost Worlds DLC for free in the Skyworld Free Weekend on Steam  and Oculus Home. Those who decide to stick around save 50% on the VR strategy game throughout the weekend.

Offer ends on Monday at 10 AM PT and Tuesday at midnight PT on Steam and Oculus Home respectively.

Key Features:

  • Room-space VR. Step into a virtual world where you are king and walk around your battle map as if you were there, with the use of the revolutionary room-space VR technology – or stay seated for a more relaxed experience with your VR headset of choice.

  • DRAGONS! With a wave of your scepter and the magic book of spells’ knowledge at your fingertips, you are the one and only true heir to the throne who can tame the mighty dragons. Now they will do your bidding and wreak havoc on your enemy’s forces and territory.
