Astrolabe and Funcom are also thrilled to announce Gliders & Gales, the first content update of 2026, releasing February 12, highly anticipated by the players. This update will introduce customization to gliders, including new shapes, patterns, fabric textures, oculi, and trails. Gliders & Gales will also add 6 new Wonder Islands, each one including a brand-new feature: glider races.
2025 was a busy year for the cozy, feel-good sandbox survival game, with the launch of no less than three content updates and numerous patches – all influenced by the feedback from the passionate community. Aloft received numerous awards, including Best to Relax at the 2025 Gameoneer Awards and Top 5 Best Studio Game at the Game Development World Championship, plus no less than eight awards at NYX Game Awards, including the Grand Prize for PC Game Indie, Survival, Casual and Best Experience.
“To all the players and content creators of Aloft, thank you for your incredible love and generosity. Your passion and kind words are the fuel that drives our team daily, propelling us forward on this skybound adventure. We have so much more planned for Aloft, and we can't wait for you to enjoy it as much as we enjoy building it.” says Manuel Bergeron, CEO Astrolabe.
Astrolabe also provided a handy roadmap for the year, which also includes everything that was added in 2025.
