Sker Ritual multiplayer, in one place

Last verified: 2026-10-24

Sker Ritual supports solo and up to four players online. Solo can also be played offline, according to a developer reply. The PlayStation store lists one local player and up to four online players, not split-screen. Publisher updates document crossplay among Steam, PlayStation and Xbox; Epic-to-console pairing remains unverified in the sources used here. Party codes and host-region options are documented for organising groups.

What the mode actually is

This is round-based survival, not a separate story campaign you play on the couch. A developer reply on Steam says solo can be played offline. Public matchmaking is still an online service, and the player-count page is the right place for “is it dead?”.

  • 1–4 players, online.
  • Solo is supported. Offline solo is confirmed by a developer reply.
  • No split-screen.
  • Crossplay timeline is on its own page so the dates stay checkable.

Questions people ask

Is Sker Ritual co-op?

Yes. One to four players online, and you can play alone.

Is there split-screen?

No. The current PlayStation listing specifies one local player and up to four online; Steam lists single-player and online co-op, not shared-screen co-op.

How do I invite friends on another platform?

Use a party code. See the crossplay page for which platforms joined and when.
