'Sker Ritual' Post-Launch Roadmap Reveals Free Content

by Rainier on May 3, 2024 @ 8:44 a.m. PDT

Spiritual successor to occult horror game Maid of Sker, Sker Ritual is a co-op survival FPS where you play solo or with 3 other 4 players to survive the supernatural onslaught of the Quiet Ones.

Sker Ritual is a co-op wave shooter first and foremost but it will feature in-game challenges, tasks, and some soon-to-be-revealed events, which will reward you with story content (as well as unlockable content). The choice is yours, play solo if you're brave enough or grab up to 4 players to tackle the onslaught of Quiet men together.

Set shortly after the events of Maid of Sker, Sker Ritual takes place in the early-1900s with a little more of a steampunk influence. There is action, adventure, survival horror, mystery, and a little gothic science fiction. Sker Hotel has moved on a little since you last saw it, it's now in the 20th Century and has a few surprises still to come.

The Quiet Ones have returned, only now they seem a little more... undead. Maid of Sker fans might also recognize a new and improved Blazeslinger, Banshee, Mariner and Phantom. These juggernauts are tough to take down and each have a unique set of abilities that will force you to change-up your playstyle, change your location, or enlist the help of your teammates! Old enemies aren't the only ones to curse the lands of Sker, there will be more new faces — even some without faces.


The Sker Ritual Post-Launch Roadmap is here! What have you got to look forward to?

Well, there's two FREE content updates that will feature: a new map, a new standard and special weapon, new perks, a new Hardcore Easter Egg and Easter Egg music!

Plus, PlayStation 5 players rejoice as we're working on that cross-play!

We are committed to continually improving all areas of the game including: optimisation, bug fixes, balancing and networking. PS4 and XO releases will happen, however the date is TBC at the moment. Every effort will be made to hit the content times and many more milestones, but anything can happen in game dev so dates and content are subject to change.

 

Above all, we want to thank you once again for supporting Sker Ritual! You've supported us throughout our Early Access journey, over the course of our 1.0 launch and we hope you'll continue to support us during our post-launch.

  • Old-school round-based FPS action

  • Optional objectives & hidden Easter Eggs
