He also needs to overcome obstacles and greater enemies.
The adventure starts in the village of Vellie, a close knit community carving out a living on the floating islands.
Otus and his best friend Geddy are tasked with patrolling for sky pirates but they charge off to catch a bizarre laughing troublemaker.
The duo stumble across a forgotten cave full of ancient owl mysteries.
After the trail goes cold and the two head home, the village is swarmed with sky pirates.
People are shaken up but it looks as if the pirates were preoccupied with something else and the capital city of Advent.
Asio (the mentor of Otus) tasks the two to make haste and attempt a plan to stop the pirates.
You play as Otus, a mute owl who is thrust into the role of protecting his friends and family from pirates.
He is unable to fight for himself so he relies on his friends ready to fight for him.
Using an ancient and mysterious owl relic, gunners can teleport into the player's hands at an instance.
Using the controller, the game plays similar to a twin-stick shooter.
Otherwise control Otus with the keyboard and aim with the mouse.
Gameplay is reminiscent of classic franchises like Metroid , Zelda , Wonderboy , Kid Icarus , and Kirby .
The game is both a love letter to classic games while being something new and modern due to the open exploration.
About PlayStation 4
The PlayStation 4 (2013) cemented Sony's dominance of the eighth console generation, with a library exceeding 30,000 titles once indie and digital-only releases are counted. Most PS4 games remain affordable for collectors, but limited physical print runs — particularly from smaller publishers and later in the console's life cycle — are starting to see steady price increases as digital storefronts eventually wind down support.
Gamevaro tracks Owlboy for PlayStation 4 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Owlboy to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS4 release dates back to 2016.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
