Announcing the Sky Creator Troupe!

One of our favorite things about working on Sky is seeing what players make to share their experiences in the game—in fact, we have a Slack channel just for sharing the cool content we see in community posts. It’s an incredible feeling knowing that while we’re making things for Sky, players are out there doing the same in their own unique ways.

So today, we’re excited to roll out a new program called the Creator Troupe as an opportunity for Sky creators to come together to hone their craft, make new friends, and get fresh inspiration for their future works. 

“Creator Troupe?” you ask. “Is this a real thing and not just some way for you to find more cool Sky videos to share with your coworkers on Slack?” While we can neither confirm nor deny our plans to keep sharing cool stuff with our coworkers on Slack, this new program is definitely a real thing, themed after Season of Performance, our celebration of all things creative arts.

By joining the Creator Troupe, you’ll receive unique opportunities to make Sky content, and to challenge yourself with new adventures that will push your creativity to new heights. It offers a range of benefits to support you and your projects,too. 

For example, Troupe members receive:

• Early information for major updates

• A chance to join special offline events and celebrations

• Opportunities to chat with devs

• In-game rewards like Season Passes, Gift Passes, and Candles to boost your community

• And more!

Please note that, at the moment, we’re specifically adding English speaking creators who focus on Sky video, livestreaming, and guide content. After the program is up and running, if we feel that we’re staffed to support other creators, we’ll revisit this stance. Until then, we’ll continue providing other opportunities through regular social media contests, as well as community initiatives such as #Skytober (which is 100% coming back for 2023!), highlighting artists on our social media channels, and even collaborations such as our recent comic series with Apriltheo for Season of Passage.

If you’re interested in joining, you can fill out the application form here!

Thank you for the incredible pieces you all create, which always brighten our days. We’ll see you in the skies—and we hope, in the Creator Troupe!
