Far From Home was founded in 2020 by a group of industry veterans intent on producing “AA+” games with high production values.
Forever Skies will be a first-person shooter coupled with a survival game. This takes place after a natural disaster leaves the planet uninhabitable. You take on the role of a scientist who descends to the surface from a space station in search of a cure for a dangerous disease which lies hidden amongst the ruins of the recently deserted world.

Forever Skies will feature crafting, base building, gardening, and research. You also have to fend off whatever mysterious creatures may be lurking below the poisonous clouds.
