In the build-up to the full launch of Sker Ritual in April, Wales Interactive has released the game’s demo for PlayStation 5 users today. The demo consists of the fan-favourite map, Cursed Lands of Lavernock, and rounds off the previous demo launches for Steam and Xbox Series.

Currently in Early Access, the news of the demo for PlayStation 5 comes on the heels of a recent news from the Sker Ritual team that a new weapon in the Basil Automatic 1913 will be added to the game in an forthcoming update.

And, for those attending the Insomnia gaming festival in March, you’ll be able to check out Sker Ritual and its four episodes. The festival runs from March 29-31.

Sker Ritual is set after the events of 2020’s Maid of Sker, taking place in the 1900s. Taking on more of a survival wave shooter this time around, players will be exploring a new area of Sker Island known as “The Cursed Lands of Lavernock”. Battling alongside up to three of your friends, you’ll be taking on old foes and the aforementioned Elite, each with a unique set of abilities that will force you to think on your strategies in order to survive.

Lucky for you, you’ve got some help in the form of Miracles. Killing enemies has the chance to drop these Miracles, which offer a choice of three random upgradable powers that buff or alter your shooting, melee, grenade and healing. Each Miracle is bound to a Celtic God and come in many forms including rarity, core attributes and power.
