Sker Ritual crossplay matrix
Last verified: 2026-10-24
PC and Xbox could play together at the April 2024 launch. PlayStation 5 joined Steam and Xbox on 31 May 2024. PS4 and Xbox One joined on 24 April 2025. The May post explicitly names Steam and Xbox as PS5 partners. The anniversary notes mention Steam and Epic for PC improvements but do not explicitly resolve Epic-to-console invites, so that pair remains unverified here.
Who can join whom
There is no split-screen column because local co-op is not a feature. A long public queue can be widened by the map filter the anniversary notes mention. Host region can override the region for a private lobby or matchmaking.
| Platform | Crossplay from | Named partners |
|---|---|---|
| Steam (PC) | 18 Apr 2024 | Xbox, later PlayStation |
| Xbox Series X|S | 18 Apr 2024 | PC, later PlayStation |
| PS5 | 31 May 2024 | Steam and Xbox |
| PS4 | 24 Apr 2025 | The crossplay pool in that update |
| Xbox One | 24 Apr 2025 | The crossplay pool in that update |
| Epic (PC) | Named for PC improvements, not an explicit pairing | Console invites unverified in cited posts |
Party codes, not couch co-op
The May 2024 PS5 post improves the UI and flow of the existing Party Code invite system, alongside Steam Deck fixes and a PS5/Xbox Series online-or-offline launch option. It does not say party codes were first introduced that day. Share the code, do not expect a second controller on the same TV to open a second survivor. Split-screen searches are answered here so they do not grow a separate empty page: it is not supported.
Questions people ask
Can PS5 play with PC?
Yes, since the 31 May 2024 crossplay patch, using Steam and Xbox as the named partners.
Does Sker Ritual have split-screen?
No.
Can Epic players invite a PS5?
The official posts we used do not say so. This page will not invent that invite path.
