Blue Isle Studios has found a publisher for Guardians of the Wild Sky. Paradox Interactive will handle the release of the survival craft game, which lets players build airships and facilities, then take to the skies for exploration and combat.
The game's Guardians are pets with unique traits that become reliable companions when fed and cared for. Players can also fly by controlling dragons and engage in aerial battles against hostile factions' airships or dragons.
Paradox's involvement appears aimed at raising the game's quality and mod-friendliness. User mods will be available from day one of its Steam Early Access release, which is scheduled for sometime in 2027. The game has over 450,000 wishlist registrations and is planned for PC via Steam.
