On Monday, Wales Interactive released a new trailer and details for the upcoming co-op survival first-person shooter “Sker Ritual.”
A spiritual successor to the award-winning British horror, Maid of Sker, this 1-4 player co-op, round-based survival shooter has players facing off against hordes of new and familiar enemies using upgradeable steampunk-inspired weapons.
The Quiet Ones have returned, and they are not alone. Sker Island has recruited new elites, each with a unique set of abilities that will force players to change up their playstyle, change location, or enlist the help of teammates to survive.
To help in the fight against the nightmares of Sker Island, The Laughing Policeman’s booth will have locations across the maps where players will be able to get guns, ammo, and more for their steampunk arsenal. Buy stock munitions or gamble on a randomly picked weapon with a chance of gaining a higher base level. Climb the weapon ranks with unique upgrades courtesy of The Laughing Policeman’s SUPER CHARGER for bonus buffs and visible steam-punk inspired enhancements.
Additional customizations in the game include masks, voice taunts, and more. Players will be able to customize their character with interchangeable in-game masks inspired by all forms of horror; folk, gothic, zombie, science fiction, the supernatural, and more. Taunt your teammates with unique voice lines and switch out your dynamic menu scene environments from the Island.
“Sker Ritual” is coming to PC via Steam this summer, with a new-gen console launch planned for later in the year.
