The first major content update for Ritual Party, The Second Summoning, has now arrived, bringing new levels, new cultists, and even more opportunities for everything to go horribly wrong.

Included in the update:

3 New Mansion Levels 2 New Dock Levels 2 New Playable Characters

As the secret society grows, strange new ritual sites have begun appearing across the region. Abandoned mansions creak open once more, fog-covered docks hide increasingly suspicious activity, and new faces have joined the order.

Of course, things are no safer than before.

Ghosts still roam the halls. Police still interrupt ceremonies. Rituals still spiral into chaos. And your teammates still cannot be trusted with fragile occult artifacts.

In addition to the new content, the update also includes a large number of gameplay improvements, fixes, and online stability updates based on community feedback.
