Make sure to make friends
The first step to playing Sky: Children of the Light with your friends is to add them as friends on Switch.

SCOTL has a cross-play feature so gamers can play on Switch or mobile devices comfortably. Players of all devices can participate in co-op play together.
Guide to add friends
People can add someone as a friend in Sky: Children of the Light once they’ve added that person to their Nintendo account’s friends list.
To do this, open the pause menu by pressing Plus button on JoyCon or Pro controller. Navigate to Invite and everyone will be taken to a menu asking to invite 1 Nintendo friend or on a mobile device.
Click on any of the appropriate options, and as long as the person has played Sky: Children of the Light, they can be added as a friend by submitting a friend request.
If that person doesn’t play Sky: Children of the Light, people won’t be able to see them. If that friend plays on mobile, search for their nickname.

Restart Sky: Children of the Light
If the player and friend have just added each other, everyone may have to restart the game in case the 2 players don’t show up together.
Go to Home Island and stand on Stone Circle
On your Home Island, stand on the floor-mounted Stone Circle, which will be directly across from the archway. Press the button Y on it to display the constellation menu. From here, the player will have to search through the constellations using the buttons OFFER and CHEAP until his friend’s name appeared.
Start playing with friends
After seeing your friend’s name, click on it and they will appear in front of the character. However, this is not the true embodiment of that friend.
Tap them and move the pointer up until it’s on an icon that looks like a person standing next to a dotted line leading to a triangle (it looks like someone is flying a kite at a glance).
This is the button Join Friend and when pressing use it, everyone’s character will be switched to the position of friends. Now everyone can play games together, complete puzzles, release souls and grow their wings.
