Fans eagerly awaited fresh news of EA’s highly-anticipated new Skate game have been given their wish, but it mighn’t be quite what they were expecting. EA and developer Full Circle have shared a new 18-minute video, announcing, among other things, that their long-awaited skateboarding revival will be a free-to-play live-service game.
Despite having variously been known as both Skate 4 and a Skate reboot since its development was announced in 2020, Full Circle now says the game “isn’t a sequel, it’s not a remake, a reboot, [or] a prequel.” Instead, it’s described as an “authentic evolution” of the series – one whose last mainline entry arrived 12 years ago – that reflects “where skateboarding and gaming is in the real world”.
Full Circle also confirmed a final name in the form of “Skate.” (that fullstop is here to stay), and a new setting in San Vansterdam – described as a sister city to previous games’ San Vanelona.
