Skyline reached in-game on two Nintendo Switch games in January 2022 and has been improving massively since then.

Skyline was founded as "Lightswitch" in June 2019 by daCyuubi.<ref>[https://github.com/skyline-emu/skyline/commit/4cd6c574f062e723a47007d5dc97e67bcef080eb] daCyubbi's first commit.</ref> In May 2021, Skyline booted up several homebrew tests with graphical output.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Tz8DmYxUvk] Skyline running Space Game NX, a homebrew game.</ref> Later, in January 2022, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_Mania ''Sonic Mania''] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeste_(video_game) ''Celeste''] started booting, albeit with low FPS and graphical glitches. March 2022 saw the improvement of ''Celeste'' in terms of graphics, along with the emulator rendering the openings of ''Super Mario Odyssey'', the menu of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda:_Breath_of_the_Wild ''The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild]'', and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bastion_(video_game) ''Bastion''] booting ~~ingame~~. In April 2022, more improvements to performance were made, making ''Super Mario Odyssey'' run roughly 10x faster in its openings <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSU7Itpm7Bs] Super Mario Odyssey running on a Snapdragon 710 from April 2022.</ref> and getting Unity games running. In May 2022, Super Mario Odyssey was able to show 3D rendering, however really slow and with many graphical bugs, (TBA) In October 2022, the developers released Skyline Edge, a paid testing version that you could get by joining the "Edge" membership on their Patreon page. They also released other memberships including Edge+, which gives you development polls, and Pro XDR, where your Patreon name could be in the credits of the app.

On May 6, 2023, a Skyline developer posted this via the Skyline Discord server:

"It is with great sadness that we bring you this news. Recently, Nintendo has issued a DMCA takedown notice against Lockpick RCM which will likely come into effect on Monday, Lockpick is a core part of legally dumping keys from the Switch. They claim that it circumvents their copy protection (TPMs) and therefore violates their copyright. We find ourselves in a position where we are potentially violating their copyright by continuing to develop our project, Skyline, by dumping keys from our own Switches."

The [[Strato]] fork used to be actively developed.
