==''Skyward Sword''==
[[Link (Skyward Sword)|Link]] was born and raised in Skyloft, along with [[Zelda (Skyward Sword)|Zelda]]. He attends the [[Knight Academy]] with her and several other students. The main attraction about Skyloft is that it is a series of floating islands.


Skyloft was created when demonic hordes rose from below the ground. In their attempt to take the power from Hylia, or [[Her Grace]], they choked Hyrule of its beauty and prosperity. They caused terror and panic among the tribes. In a war with no end, Her Grace sent up a massive crop of land towards the sky. It was sent even higher than the visible clouds one can see. This crop of land, floating in the middle of nowhere, is known as Skyloft. The townspeople are completely unaware of the lands below the clouds. No one has proposed such a theory, yet Skyloftians appear afraid of what may lie below.

They also have their annual [[Wing Ceremony]], in which they use [[Loftwing]]s, a common bird race, to do various competitions. Loftwings are also the means of transportation [[Skyloftian]]s use to traverse [[the Sky]]. Oddly enough, the game mechanics for Skyloft only allow Link to successfully jump off it at designated ramps. If a jump is attempted elsewhere, or incorrectly executed in general, Link will be unable to call his Loftwing and he then ends up being rescued by a Rescue Knight.

{{main|Skyloft (Hyrule Warriors)}}
Skyloft is a stage in ''[[Hyrule Warriors]]''. Like its appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', The [[Pumpkin Landing]], known for the pumpkin-shaped [[Lumpy Pumpkin|restaurant]] and its [[Hot Pumpkin Soup|pumpkin soup]], can also be found in the Sky, but has collided with Skyloft for an unknown reason in this stage.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
Skyloft is a stage in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. It consists of a group of platforms flying in a pseudo-random path over the island at high speed, occasionally stopping at points of interest. It returns in very similar form in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
It also has a trophy in the Wii U game.
