Skate 4 Devs Unafraid of Bugs; 'Pre-pre-alpha' Footage Revealed

Electronic Arts and Full Circle have released a short gameplay from the fourth Skate. It reportedly comes from a pre-pre-alpha version. Signups for the game's closed tests has also been announced.

Electronic Arts has listened to fans and decided that the the fourth Skate will be made. The project was entrusted to studio Full Circle, founded at the turn of 2020 and 2021, and as a result, it has been in progress for only a dozen months. Before the quarter we wrote that internal testing of the game had begun, hoping that we would soon see it in action. And so it happened - today a short gameplay appeared on accounts dedicated to the skateboarding series on Twitter and YouTube.

If it doesn't impress you too much, take note that these are fragments of gameplay from the "pre-pre-alpha" version of the new Skate - or at least that's how the developers described it. And while there's no denying the bugs and the fact that character models and environmental elements need further work, and a lot can change by the time of release, the the skateboarding itself seems pretty solid.

Those of you believe Skate shows potential, can sign up for closed tests of the PC version (because yes, for the first time in the history of the series there will be one) - you will do it on this page. Keep in mind, however, that the queues are large and not all those willing to test the game will be able to do so right away. However, the developer intends to gradually invite more and more players to the tests - also from other platforms, where the new Skate is to be released, namely PS5 and XSX/S. The release date remains unknown.
