The cozy airship trading sim Merchant of the Skies is officially heading to mobile, with pre-registrations now live on Android and iOS ahead of its April 14, 2026, launch. Developed by AstralRide, the game arrives as a full premium experience priced at $7.99.
Merchant of the Skies focuses on a relaxing, non-combat experience with exploration
If the name sounds familiar, that’s because Merchant of the Skies already has a solid reputation on PC, with the title getting some incredibly positive reviews on Steam. Now, it’s been adapted for mobile while keeping the same depth and relaxed gameplay loop intact.

So now speaking about the gameplay, you take control of an airship, travel between floating islands, and slowly build your own trading empire. Unlike most simulation games, this one doesn’t rely on combat or high-pressure mechanics.
Instead, it leans into a more “zen” experience, where you focus on trading, exploration, and building. As you progress, you can start building your own network by purchasing islands, setting up production chains, and automating trade routes for steady passive income.
Exploration also plays a big role, with different airships to command and plenty of quirky encounters and hidden secrets scattered across the sky. On top of that, there’s a creative side too, letting you build your own sky mansion and headquarters using hundreds of customization options.
According to the developers, the mobile version has been redesigned to feel natural on touchscreen devices. All the experience bundled into one with zero ads, no timers, and no pay-to-win mechanics, everything makes it an excellent offering.
Pre-registration is now open on both platforms, so if you are interested in the premise, you can check out Merchant of the Skies on both Android and iOS a month before its launch. This way, you can be notified once it goes live on April 14th.
