Moomins coming to Journey dev's Sky: Children of the Light this year

Tove Jansson’s beloved Moomins are heading to Journey developer ThatGameCompany’s acclaimed free-to-play “social adventure” Sky: Children of the Light this autumn, and there’s more news on its upcoming animated series Sky: The Two Embers, which is now due next year.

Sky: Children of the Light, which initially launched for iOS back in 2019 before expanding to PC and consoles, is a sort of leisurely puzzle adventure set among the different realms of a beautiful kingdom in the clouds – and it’s all built around a gently collaborative multiplayer core designed to encourage “compassion, friendship, and altruism”.

It’s also a game that follows a live-service-style seasonal model, with those seasons occasionally featuring collaborations with other properties and people. Sky: Children of the Light has, for instance, already run seasons based on The Little Prince, animated movie A Deer of Nine Colours, and even music artist Aurora, and we now know the Moomins are up next.
