Early images of new Skate game appear online

Early images of a new Skate game have surfaced online. It appears to be a pre-alpha build of the skateboarding game. EA already announced in 2020 that there will be a new Skate. Earlier this week, insider Tom Henderson stated that EA is doing a playtest.

VentureBeat journalist and trusted insider Jeff Grubb share the images on Twitter. They previously appeared on video platform Odysee, but the video has since been taken offline there. The video shows pre-alpha gameplay of the skateboarding game, in which a skater does kickflips and flips in a game world with no textures. Grubb writes that EA is currently mainly focusing on the ‘feel’ of the game.

According to Grubb, Skate 4 is unlikely to be released this year, but EA may soon provide more details. In any case, the company seems to be testing the game extensively. Earlier this week EA insider Tom Henderson already claimed that EA a play test with Skate 4, in which some players can try out an early version of the game and provide feedback on it.

EA announced Skate 4 in 2020, but has shared few new details since then. The game is being developed by Canada’s Full Circle. The game does not yet have a concrete release date. It was announced last year that the game will also come to PC, unlike the first three Skate games.
