De ce acces timpuriu?

„We have an ambitious vision for skate.: an ever-growing, ever-evolving skateboarding sandbox that expands over time. We've always known this game needed to be built in partnership with our players. We've been doing that through the last 3 years of playtesting - and we want to continue that same collaboration with our players in this next phase.

Our Early Access launch will be a starting point from which new features, improvements, live events, and seasonal content will be added over time.”

„skate.’s large-scale, open world city is a dedicated skateboarding destination with 150 players per server and cross platform play and progression. You can play with friends to find skateboarding spots around every corner [many in unexpected places]. The game has missions, skill-building challenges, and live seasonal events. You have plenty of options to customize your character and decks, including partnerships with exciting real world brands.

The beloved Flick-It trick system from previous Skate games is significantly improved, giving players the depth of control and finesse to pull off incredible moves with style. Climbing and offboard controls help players traverse the world to find and conquer the city's best spots. Players can modify and leave their mark on the world using our in-world editor to drop ramps, rails, and more in their favorite locations. In the world of San Vansterdam, change is constant, so players will see the city - along with live events and other in-game activities - transform meaningfully over time.”

„We have always been committed to player-led development, and thousands of skaters have already played a central role in shaping the game’s development. Future development, during Early Access and after, will be informed by what the skateboarders from San Vansterdam love to do, and the feedback they provide.

Through our official Discord and other forums, we actively solicit feedback, from which we make gameplay adjustments, triage bugs, and address other player requests. We are providing the community with a clear view of what’s ahead through developer Q&As, blogs, and upcoming roadmaps.”
