The new free-to-play Skate game from EA is still in pre-pre-alpha, which means it’s many years away from release. But developer Full Circle has been quite open about the release’s development, inviting fans to playtest the skateboarding sim since its inception. And that process will continue on consoles later this year.
A trailer featuring fictional creative accounting organisation M-Corp concluded with a fresh clip of gameplay, which once again highlighted the game’s online focus and emphasis on creativity. For those who haven’t been keeping track, the title will essentially allow you to place objects in the world, and you’ll then be able to compete with others in real-time to find the best lines.
You can find out more information about the title’s various beta tests on its official website, so let us know if you do decide to register and take part.

What was the whole m corp for a skating game?
To top it off, the game looked pretty awful,

Free to play aswel and we are years away?
I just dont think its worth it in the end.
Riders Republic has a quite robust skate section, that game looks better than this trailer
@Bez87 No crap it the graphics are subpar, it's literally still in development. You think «pre-pre-alpha» means that this is what the final game looks
