Wales Interactive has teased a new free map for its co-op horror shooter Sker Ritual. The teaser may also include a secret release date.

The House of the Damned map will be available to all players and has already been penciled in for a July release on Sker Ritual’s roadmap. Wales Interactive has said it’s still on track to meet that.

But the teaser perhaps offers a more concrete date. Several people have pointed out that the Morse code in the 20-second preview suggests a July 22, 2024, release date.

Sker Ritual trailer and details

Sker Ritual is an intense round-based zombie survival FPS, play solo or co-op. Shoot your way through relentless waves of vicious horrors with high-octane objectives, upgrading steampunk weapons, collecting Celtic God powers, and surviving the onslaught of the Quiet Ones.

”The Quiet Ones are back in this round-based survival FPS. Face hordes of new and familiar enemies, supercharged elites with unique supernatural powers, upgradeable steam-punk weapons, interchangeable spine-chilling masks, and mysterious story objectives from the writing talent behind Maid of Sker, Battlefield 1, and Total War: Rome II.”

Sker Ritual is a spiritual successor to single-player horror game Maid of Sker. It was launched out of Early Access on April 18, 2024.

resident evil village sales milestone

Capcom has revealed that Resident Evil Village has passed a major sales milestone and broke a series record in reaching it.

Resident Evil Village makes series history

Since its release in 2021, the game has topped 10 million sales globally, which makes it the fastest title in the series to reach that number. It’s the eighth mainline title.

As of March 2024, the Resident Evil franchise has sold more than 152 million copies worldwide. After a critical slump, the series was boosted by the success of Resident Evil 7. That game has sold almost 14 million copies to date, matched by the 2019 Resident Evil 2 remake.

For context, Resident Evil 7 still hadn’t hit 10 million sales by the time the eighth game came out, a four-year gap to Village’s three.

Resident Evil Village joined the Capcom Platinum Club shortly after its release. The award goes to any Capcom title that hits a million sales.

DLC, a repackaged Gold Edition, and ports to more hardware have bolstered the game over the years. It’s also on PSVR 2 in its entirety. It sees the continuation of Ethan Winters’ story as he heads into deadly new territory and faces off against a selection of freakish monstrosities.

Fellow Traveller and Jump Over the Age revealed a Citizen Sleeper 2 PS5 release is coming, as a new gameplay trailer also debuted.

Previously, the game had been announced for Xbox Series X|S and PC, but now news of a PS5 and Nintendo Switch version has also been revealed ahead of its early 2025 release date.

The highly anticipated sequel to one of 2022’s most acclaimed RPGs, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector takes players to the Starward Belt, a richly realized, ramshackle set of habitats in an asteroid belt full of secrets, stories, and characters trying to make ends meet.

Citizen Sleeper 2 PS5 Trailer

Players step into the shoes of a Sleeper, an emulated human mind housed in an artificial body. They are on the run from the corporation that made them and the gang that seeks to control them. To stay ahead of their pursuers, the player will have to commandeer a ship, build a network of crew and allies, and take on challenging contracts as they seek to build a future for themselves.

Your crew starts with Serafin, your fellow escapee and a rock-solid pilot. But you’ll need scrappers, engineers and all sorts to take on the contracts that’ll keep you flying. Contracts take place far from the bars and shops of the Belt’s many hubs, and these high-risk jobs each have their own challenges, where failure is just a few bad dice rolls away, so you’ll want to make sure you pick the right crew for work.

Players will choose a class, configure their skills and assemble their crew in unique tabletop-inspired gameplay. Their future depends on the roll of a dice, as they make difficult choices in a complex world. Reinventing the award-winning systems of Citizen Sleeper, the sequel is a deep narrative RPG that will satisfy both fans of the original game and new players alike.

SI and SEGA have announced the Football Manager series will have the English FA Premier League license in future entries.

The long-running management game series has been wildly popular despite lacking the license for the top league in English football. But now, the English top flight will become fully licensed in Football Manager, joining other top European and World leagues.

The trailer below gives a brief teaser on why the Premier League license is such a big win for SI and SEGA.

Football Manager and Premier League unite

Behind every iconic moment is a manager. Create your own Premier League moments with the official license coming to Football Manager. This multi-year partnership will elevate the top-flight experience in future editions of FM with all 20 teams fully licensed, across titles. More information on the Premier League’s in-game integration and partnership activities will be revealed later in the year. Sign up to FMFC to be the first in line when that info drops: FMFC.info/SignUp.

Console fans have only recently been able to get close to a proper Football Manager experience (with caveats), with PS5 players only getting a console version in the last couple of years. EA FC (formerly FIFA) also features the Premier League license.

Tripwire Interactive has revealed the first Killing Floor 3 trailer and set an early 2025 release window for the horror shooter sequel.

Killing Floor 3 trailer

Killing Floor III‘s gameplay trailer introduces the first three new playable Nightfall specialists. This includes the highly-anticipated return of fan-favorite commando, Mr. Foster. Each specialist comes complete with their own unique set of skills and proficiencies. That gives them and their team an edge in combat, including an arsenal of fully customizable weapons and deadly cutting-edge military gadgets. Maps in Killing Floor III come to life with new levels of verticality and traversability.

Moreover, when combined with advancements in player movement such as dashing and climbing, and the addition of deadly environmental traps, give specialists new strategies to adapt and survive. Horzine’s Zeds have been redesigned for maximum destruction. Now with enhancements in weaponry, movement, AI, and enemy behavior, their new methods of terminating specialists are more gruesome and effective than ever. And finally, for the first time, fans can feast their eyes on one of Horzine’s latest creations: The Impaler.

Killing Floor III is the next installment in the legendary co-op action/horror FPS series. The year is 2091, 70 years after the events in Killing Floor 2. Megacorp Horzine has produced the ultimate army: an obedient horde of bio-engineered monstrosities called Zeds. Now, the only thing standing between these infernal creations and the future of humanity is the rebel rogue group known as Nightfall. This intense first-person shooter puts players in the role of a Nightfall specialist. Joining forces with up to five teammates as they battle through a war-ravaged, dystopian future, surviving unrelenting waves of Zeds. What’s more, players will be unlocking new skills and building the ultimate arsenal.

Killing Floor 3 will be on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
