Hey everyone,

It’s time for a sneak preview and we want to share with you “The Cursed Lands of Lavernock”.



In "The Cursed Lands of Lavernock", players will be exploring a new area of Sker Island taking on waves of the "Quiet Ones". From a small fishing village to a secret underground Laboratory, players will have to use their wits to survive the onslaught and complete their mission across an abandoned Cathedral and areas reminiscent of Sker Hotel.


The long since Abandoned Cathedral now lays host to ritualistic effigies, with plenty of hidden passages for the Quiet Ones to hunt from

The Underground Living Quarters holds many secrets, twisting and turning, with areas easily overwhelmed if you’re not careful

The Ancient Farmland is the perfect place for a respite, or an ambush, watch out for the remains of the Quiet Ones previous victims, you can’t save them now


The Mysterious Chamber holds the unknown behind its doors, only the brave can discover

In Sker Ritual, players will come up against the turned residents of Sker Island. These new "Quiet Ones" pose no real threat to the players but make sure to keep their numbers low or otherwise they will overwhelm you and cause a lot of trouble.



But be careful some are bigger and badder than ever! The Blazeslinger, Banshee, Mariner, and Phantom are familiar faces and if you’ve played Maid of Sker Challenge mode, you know not to get too close and personal to these elite Quiet Ones.



The Blazeslinger is a little hot-headed, capable of fire attacks at range, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend, wear him down and he might be your best friend.

Disorientating with her sonic screams The Banshee has the ability to seemingly appear out of thin air, right behind you.

Lost to the depths The Mariner, somehow now returned and vengeful, his helmet is his power with laser precision you need to stay out of his line of “sight”

Evening the playing field, he can’t see you and you can’t see him, The Phantom aim carefully or you might just miss him but he will find you.

Hey everyone,

Welcome back to the world of Sker!

Thank you for joining us in our series of developer updates, explaining more about Sker Ritual and answering even more of your questions. We are a team of 12 Welsh developers, the same team that maid– sorry, made –Maid of Sker. Despite our small size we’re always scouting the forums (and Twitter) and do read all of your questions and comments, so we’d like to try and answer these right now and in the following developer updates.



To co-op or not
With Sker Ritual we aim to bring you and your friends together in an online co-op shooter that leads on from the story of Maid of Sker. You can still tackle the onslaught and discover the story alone, just in case you’re not feeling very social [we get that] but it’s most enjoyed playing with up to a 4-strong team, whether they be friends or future-friends from online matchmaking.



Continuing the Sker
Sker Ritual does have some familiar faces and a story that leads on from Maid of Sker (more about that soon!) but it is not Maid of Sker 2. Sker Ritual has so many new and familiar faces. We love the characters we created in Maid of Sker and wanted to see how far we could push character creation from a multiplayer perspective within what is already a sker-y world.



When does Sker Ritual take place?
The game is based after the events of Maid of Sker, in the 1900s but with a little more of a steampunk influence that was touched on in the single-player horror. Make no mistake this is a wave shooter with a well-written story campaign built-in. Expect close-up action, dark adventure, zombie-esque survival, lots of customization, and some gothic science fiction for good measure. 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.

We are working hard to bring you an exciting, high-quality, multiplayer experience and we can’t wait to connect with new and existing fans. Stay tuned for dev update 'dau' (two) coming soon.
