Sker Islanders, there's no patch this week but that's because our team are busy ensuring that there'll be loads to look forward to in the next one!

However, we asked our Sker Ritual Discord to send us their burning questions for Sker Ritual and our team have put together as many answers as possible!

[h3] Q. When is the PS5 physical disc release targeted? Would complement Maid of Sker collection nicely.
[/h3]

We will have a physical console release of Sker Ritual. We are currently looking at different options that will best suit Sker Ritual but we're unable to confirm any at this time.

[h3]Q. Will Maid of Sker and Sker Ritual story be connected on some way?
[/h3]

Yes! While it won't be neccessary to have played Maid of Sker to understand the Sker Ritual story there will be many connections that our Maid of Sker fans will love. Sorry we can't give too much more away at the moment. #Spoilers

[h3]Q. Any chance we see the Siren's as an enemy (or ally)?[/h3]

We love the Siren as much as you do! There is a possibility we could see her in the future. ;)

[h3]Q. When did development for Sker Ritual start?[/h3]

Sker Ritual development started in May 2021!

[h3]Q. Can we expect to have female bodytypes by the 1.0 release?[/h3]

Good news! We are looking into more customistation options including character models!

[h3]We also had many questions about community maps and future maps for Sker Ritual. [/h3]

Our team are still looking into this but our current prioroties will be focusing on improving and developing Sker Ritual's existing content ahead of 1.0!

Are there any questions that you want to ask? Let us know in the comments and over on our Sker Ritual Discord! Once there, you can chat more with the team, find squads to take on the Quiet Ones, and work towards some amazing rankings and rewards.

As always, thank you for your continued support of Sker Ritual!
