Sker: The Bleeding Veil targets Q2 2027 on Steam

Last verified: 2026-10-24

On 15 October 2026 Wales Interactive announced Sker: The Bleeding Veil for 2027 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. The current Steam listing targets Q2 2027 (April–June), while the announcement uses the broader year 2027. It is first-person, single-player, and described as fully non-combat. Stealth and sound are the systems. The year in the story is 1924, at the Sker Point Orphanage in Wales. It shares the Siren myth with Sker Ritual. It is not a co-op zombie sequel, and nobody has announced a product called Sker Ritual 2. The screenshots on this page are Sker Ritual, the game this site covers. They are not Bleeding Veil gameplay.

Who is making it, and in what

Stormind Games and Wales Interactive are co-developing it. The announcement names Unreal Engine 5. Sker Ritual itself is a Unity game. An engine change does not determine sequel status: the relevant distinction is the announced title and its single-player, non-combat design, rather than Sker Ritual’s co-op rounds. Platforms named so far: PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S. No price was listed. The official Steam listing and wishlist is the source for the current Q2 2027 target, which may change.

What stays in the older game

Sker Ritual remains the 1–4 player round shooter set in 1914. Its story connection to Maid of Sker is explained on the lore pages. Bleeding Veil does not replace those maps, and claiming the Epic copy of Sker Ritual does not put the 2027 game in your library.
