We're excited for new players to experience Sker Ritual for the first time as it enters into it's first Free Weekend on Steam from Thursday 29th Jan - Mon 2nd Feb. This free taster joins our PlayStation 5 (PS Plus) & Xbox Free Trial offerings with two hours of the complete game to enjoy!
Despite Sker Ritual not being a live service game, our same small team continues to update and support the game. Since launch, we've added two maps complete with hidden objectives, voice chat (Steam), third-person mode, custom games with over 100+ modifiers and even added support for previous generation consoles.
However, we are not just dedicated to Sker Ritual but the whole Sker Universe. We're very excited to reveal that several projects are already underway and we can't wait to share more with you on those in the near future.
Hazard Levels, our upcoming co-op is rooted in Sker Ritual lore that players will have the opportunity to unravel. This survival looter will be arriving in early access in Q2 this year.
