"The Two Embers: Part One Unveils Sky: Children of the Light's Origin"

Sky: Children of the Light has always stood out for its breathtaking art style, emotional depth, and immersive storytelling—and now, thatgamecompany is taking things even further. Get ready for *The Two Embers*, the game’s first-ever in-game animated feature, set to premiere with a limited screening of Part One starting July 21st.

What Is The Two Embers?

This silent animated film unfolds entirely within Sky’s world—no dialogue, no voiceover, just powerful visuals, evocative music, and raw emotion. The story begins with a young orphan living on the outskirts of The Ruler’s City, once vibrant but now crumbling under a growing darkness. One day, the child discovers a wounded baby manatee—an encounter that sparks a journey through grief, loneliness, and unexpected hope. Above it all, the Ruler watches silently as a mysterious storm looms over the fading kingdom.

Though told without words, the emotional weight hits hard—especially as the bond between child and manatee brings light into the shadows.

How to Experience It In-Game

Instead of releasing it externally, thatgamecompany chose a truly unique approach: weekly chapter releases inside Sky Cinema, a specially built in-game theater. Each new episode unlocks fresh content tied directly to the story—inviting players to explore the narrative not just by watching, but by playing. It's transmedia storytelling at its finest, blending cinematic art with interactive experience.

A Bold Step Forward for Sky

Produced by Light & Realm in collaboration with thatgamecompany, and co-produced by Illusorium Studios and Orchid, *The Two Embers* marks the studio’s most ambitious project yet. With Aurora’s upcoming concert and now this cinematic event, Sky continues to evolve beyond a mobile game—it’s becoming a living, breathing world of shared stories and meaningful moments.

Ready to witness the beginning of Sky’s origin story? Download Sky: Children of the Light on the Google Play Store and prepare for a cinematic experience like no other—all within the game you love.
