This summer is about to get even spookier. Maid of Sker, the most recent horror project from Wales Interactive, is set to release later this year on PC and consoles.
Maid of Sker is a first-person survival horror game that ” draws players back to 1898 to adventure through the notoriously macabre Hotel Sker. With multiple ways for your stay at Hotel Sker to come to an end, use your time wisely as you navigate the halls and grounds employing no-weapon survival tactics, and relying on your ability to keep quiet to stay breathing.” A sound-based AI system will haunt the player throughout the experience.
This horror experience is heavily inspired by Welsh folklore, specifically the story of “Elisabeth Williams – the tragic tale of a Welsh woman in the 1800s losing her life after her father locks her away in her room to die of heartbreak. Maid of Sker brings a story of a family empire driven by a supernatural mystery that suffocates the grounds of the hotel.”
A horrifying new trailer shows quests what to expect while staying at the Hotel Sker, and it is not an experience to be missed!
The developer, Wales Interactive, is known for their work on other projects like The Complex, Late Shift, The Bunker, Don’t Knock Twice, and The Shapeshifting Detective. Some of their writing talent even brought the horror-classic SOMA to life before tackling Maid of Sker.
Maid of Sker is set to release on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One later this year in June, and a Nintendo Switch release is scheduled for October 2020.
