What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Listening to player feedback and iterating with them to continuously improve the game is at the core of our studio’s DNA. Before the Early Access launch, we already playtested Skygard Arena with numerous community playtests, a closed Alpha, an open Beta and a free demo. Early Access is the logical next step for us to keep improving the game!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Currently, we are planning for about a year of Early Access in order to collect as much feedback as possible, have enough time for our team to integrate it, and deliver the additional content we have in mind. However, this duration is not set in stone, as we wish to give us some leeway to work with the feedback of the community and adjust the game as more and more people play it.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version is planned to include one more playable Champion (bringing the roster to 10 Champions), a new multiplayer Arena and additional features such as Quests (mission-specific challenges in the single-player campaign).”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game already includes 9 playable Champions, 18 Personas, 72 Artifacts and 72 different spells. You can play two different game modes: (i) the Campaign mode with 3 chapters (13 unique missions), and (ii) the Arena mode with 5 different maps, where you can play 20-minute matches in PvP through online matchmaking, against a friend, or solo against an AI.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We do not plan to change the base price of the game between early access and full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Any player can share their feedback, ask questions, suggest new features or report issues they have. Players can join our official Discord from the game’s start screen and share their feedback with us in the dedicated channels. They can also share their suggestions or report issues here in Steam discussion forums, which we monitor as well. We’re expecting to update the game depending on the feedback we’re getting, if we consider it is relevant and goes in the direction we have for the game. We’re also monitoring players data as they play the game, which can help to give direction to balance the game. When appropriate, we plan on explaining to players how their feedback is helping shape the updates we’ll be rolling.”

About This Game

Skygard Arena is a turn-based tactics game with a lore-rich single-player campaign and a multiplayer PvP arena mode. Pick your favorite Champions, build your strongest team, and claim victory through smart positioning and ability combos!

Move your Champions to victory

Use your Champions' movement action and dash spells wisely to gain tactical advantages:

  • Find the perfect angle to land devastating spells

  • Capture objectives and use them to redeploy your team

  • Move around the arena to pick up collectible orbs, gain ultimate charges and unleash ultimate spells to turn the tide of battle!

Combine your Champions' strengths

Each of your Champions has a unique set of abilities. Use them in a smart way every turn to maximize your team’s impact.

Adapt your strategy to every situation

The single-player campaign offers a custom scenario for each mission. With large-scale battles, skirmishes to capture objectives, infiltration missions, base-defense challenges and boss fights, you will be challenged as you progress through the story. Adapt your team and tactics to each situation to come out victorious.

Build your own dream team

Pick 3 Champions and a Persona for each. Each Persona comes with a unique set of spells. Equip your Champions with Relics granting game-changing passive bonuses, depending on the role you want them to play.

Create synergistic teams that fit your playstyle. There are over 250,000 different team compositions to experiment with!

Five Factions

Follow the five Factions of Skygard in epic encounters for the future of their world. Katia, bold Elves and Dwarves who united to build a flying city. The Crimson Empire and their relentless thirst for conquest. The Clan of the Clouds, an alliance of free nomad tribes. The peaceful Guardians, protectors of ancient magic. The zealots of the Silver Kingdom blinded by their faith in their angel queen.

Conquer the Arena, conquer the world

Bring your best team to the Arena and battle other players in 15/20-minute PvP matches. Play ranked mode to climb the global leaderboard or casual matches with your friends to show them who’s the best tactician!

Challenge a smart AI opponent inspired by chess engines

Test your strategies against an AI which plans their moves several turns in advance. Choose among 4 difficulty levels, with the last level featuring teams built by us for the most challenging experience!

Battle in style

Enjoy custom animations and visual effects for each Champion’s ability. Immerse yourself in the 90-minute soundtrack created by composer Raphaël Joffres and get in the flow as you ponder crucial decisions in the Arena.
