After its initial announcement in June 2020 and numerous teasers, skate. is finally ready for console playtesting on PlayStation and Xbox. While there's no set date yet for the PC beta, fans can register as an Insider to stay in the loop.
According to the game's official X (formerly Twitter) account, console playtesting has been underway since as early as September, with ongoing sessions highlighted in a recent reel. Developer Full Circle continues to invite fans to sign up for playtesting as the game's development progresses.
To participate in the beta, interested players should visit EA's official website and navigate to the Skate page to register for Skate Insider Playtesting. Not only will you get early access to the game, but Insiders will also receive exclusive rewards, including an in-game skateboard and stickers, when Early Access launches.
skate. is slated for an Early Access release in 2025. This latest installment in the franchise arrives nearly a decade after Skate 3 and will be available on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox. Set in the fictional city of San Vansterdam, skate. is designed to be a free-to-play, live-service game that promises an "authentic evolution" of the series, as shared by Full Circle in a previous YouTube interview.
