Here's some Skate development footageĪ few months after announcing a new Skate, EA revealed it formed new studio Full Circle to handle development on the next Skate game. If you're lucky, you might be able to get your hands on it before the rest of us. While there wasn't any mention of a release date, there's now a closed beta sign-up on the Skate website. Still, back in 2021, EA teased that the new Skate was coming "soon", with CEO Patrick Wilson namedropping Skate in a question about user-generated content.įull Circle, the new EA studio handling the new Skate game's development, acknowledged the game's still being worked on with a release of some dev footage. All we had was confirmation that it exists, and news that a new studio was being spun up to work on the skatequel. Back when EA confirmed what we then thought of as Skate 4, it was clear that the sequel would be a long-term project.
We don't know, but it's safe to expect a wait. If you are into skating games, and need something to hold you over until Skate 4 is released, give the incredible OlliOlli World a try.Skate's definitely too far in the future for a full picture of what it'll entail, but below you’ll find everything we do know about Skate so far, along with some educated guesses. The last game in the series, Skate 3, was released in May 2010 and came with features new to the series such as a park builder, and a choice of difficulty modes. While next to nothing is known about the game, EA hinted during a June 2020 call to investors Skate 4 could contain an open-world with “user-generated content and interaction.” The studio is under the leadership of Daniel McCulloch, the former head of Xbox Live at Microsoft. The following January, EA formed Vancouver-based studio Full Circle, stating it would be working on Skate 4. Skate 4, which is what we're calling it for now, was announced as in early development during the EA Play Live 2020 showcase by franchise director Deran Chung and creative director Chris Parry who said that fans of the series had commented it "into existence." Apparently, the leaked footage showed a game very early in development, and quite a few months old at that.
The game is reportedly just called Skate and is further along in development than previously thought when leaked footage surfaced back in April.
