EA Announces 2025 Early Access of 'skate.' Game with More Details to Come

TapTechNews September 18th news, EA company tweeted on X platform yesterday (September 17th), announcing that it will launch the early access event of the game skate. (all in lowercase with a period) in 2025 and share more game details in the coming months.

TapTechNews note: In the past few decades, whenever skateboarding games are mentioned, the familiar ones are Skate released in 2007, followed by SkateIt in 2008, Skate2 in 2009, and Skate3 in 2010.

Skate3 is also known as the fracture simulator. After its release in 2010, it became extremely popular in 2014 due to its ridiculous ways of dying.

Of course, the game won't only have BUGs. The biggest feature of this installment is the addition of exaggerated and absurd imagination. You can skate down little by little from high-rise buildings, or you can travel thousands of miles away, truly realizing the law of having a board without injury.

EA officially announced the sequel to the Skate skateboarding game 4 years ago, and has also shared quite a few preview contents during this period. Among them, the most notable is that EA revealed last June that the skate. game will be a free-to-play, microtransaction-enabled online service game (allegedly without any play-to-win elements).

The game publisher also announced more details in its official game development log, including how to reconstruct the iconic Flick-It skill control system, expand character customization options, and implement playtest tests that incorporate feedback from series fans.

EA also disclosed some details of the skate. game. The game is set in the fictional city of SanVansterdam, which has been controlled by a corporate giant named M-Corp and is in the same world as Skate 's SanVanelona.
