Hazard Levels is coming to Steam Early Access 30 April 2026, with a console launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in Q4 2026. Enter unstable rifts, survive otherworldly creatures, and grab bizarre ingredients to fuel a secret brewery hidden beneath a British pub. Hazard Levels is a 1–4 player physics-driven co-op survival horror where the deeper you go, the stranger it gets. Just make it back before last orders.
Sink your teeth into the brand new trailer for this new title from the Sker Ritual devs...
Play solo or with up to three friends to tackle the horrors of each rift. Coordination is key, survival is not guaranteed. Proximity voice chat enabled. Supports both third and first person play*
PROCEDURAL RIFT DIMENSIONS
No two expeditions are the same. Each rift generates new biomes, shifting layouts, randomised hazards, and escalating threats that force your team to adapt.
GRAVITY GAUNTLET LOOTING
Use the Gravity Gauntlet to grab, carry, and throw multiple objects at once. Harvest bizarre rift-grown ingredients and sell them at rift stations while surviving the creatures that stalk each dimension.
UNPREDICTABLE RIFT CREATURES
Terrifying creatures lurk within every dimension. Study their behaviour, learn their weaknesses, and avoid becoming their next victim in this gunless survival horror experience.
RIFT SCANNING & PORTALS
Use your state-of-the-art Rift Scanner to locate dimensional anomalies, then deploy a Rift Stabilising Device to tear open unstable portals. Step through and discover what waits on the other side.
PERK COCKTAILS
Sample experimental drinks brewed from otherworldly rift ingredients. Some grant powerful abilities… others cause complete chaos.
THE FOX HOLE ARMS
Your HQ is a traditional British pub hiding the Family’s secret R&D facility. Between expeditions customise your outfit, mix perk drinks, review mission intel, or drop a coin in the jukebox. Just don’t piss off the Landlord.
We hope you join us at The Fox Hole Arms when Hazard Levels opens its Early Access doors on April 30th on Steam. In the meantime be sure to wishlist and join us over on the Discord!

There's a lot going on here at the Wales Interactive studios! We just announced a brand new co-op title from our team; Hazard Levels! Not only that we're still working on features for Sker Ritual that we promised earlier this year.

A workshop is currently under development which will be available on both PC and Console allowing players to create custom Sker Ritual content!
On PC players will be able to use custom textures and models within their creations. This will be integrated with Steam Workshop where players will be able to share their creations with other players, who can also subscribe to their items and use them in their game as well.
The system will be open to be used with other potential mod sharing services as it'll read from a folder structure.
Launch Items will include:
Weapon Skins:
The same development tools that we use to create weapon skin rewards will open up to players to experiment, create and combine to give your weapon a unique look.
Masks:
Create custom masks for your player and friends so that you can take on the Quiet Ones in your own personal creations!
Custom Game Settings:
You'll be able to share your Custom Difficulty settings which were introduced in the previous patch and other players can use them in their own game as challenges to complete!
Beta:
A Workshop Beta on Steam will be available for a small amount of players to help us with the finishing touches of the initial Steam Workshop implementation before it becomes public. If you want to be a part of this, be sure to join our Sker Ritual Discord.
Future Workshop Projects:
After the launch of the Workshop we aim to gather as much community feedback as possible! It is then our future plans to work on Player and Enemy Model swaps and modifications, and Custom Maps.
Thank you for reading to the end! We're so excited about what amazing creations you can bring to our beloved Sker Island when the Workshop goes live. Our team will no doubt check out our favourite player-made weapons skins and masks to use in our own Sker games.

If you want to have a spooky good time with friends you have no shortage of potential options. Arcade action like the Killing Floor or goofy hijinks in Lethal Company can entertain for hours. Even in this crowded field, Sker Ritual stands out. It's a co-op horror shooter with some serious heft, calling to mind games like Dying Light and Hunt: Showdown. The latest update for Sker Ritual is a major one, adding oft-requested features and brand new layers of customization.

Surprise players! After hearing your feedback our team have been experimenting with communication options to better your Sker experience.

We would love it if you could try it out and feed back to our team in the comments below, on Discord or across our socials.
THIRD PERSON MODE ADDED
Sker Ritual is now playable in third person mode! Select in the graphics options your preferred type of view: first person or third person. You then have the option to select from three third person mode types:
NEAR
NORMAL
FAR
CUSTOM GAME MODE ADDED
Bring full chaos to your games with over 70 modifiers to choose from in our new custom game mode. These solo or private games can be selected in the difficulty menu. But be warned, some modifiers will disable your chance to earn XP. Earning achievements and masks will also be disabled in this mode.
Want to stomp on your enemies by making them teeny tiny? Well, now you can! Want to get stomped on by your enemies by making them giant? Well, now you can do that too! Plus, add a touch of anti-gravity to make dealing with those Quiet Ones extra satisfying.
We look forward to seeing all of your custom game chaos. Share your favourite modifiers and moments with us on socials! As always, we welcome feedback and if you have additional ideas for custom game modifiers our team definitely want to hear them.
