Electronic Arts has set a date – Skate will hit Early Access on September 16, 2025. After months of playtests that spilled loads of content online, the team posted a short trailer and the community is already buzzing about San Vansterdam and what the map will hold.
EA announced the Early Access window via social media today, and the skate. team shared a compact trailer to mark the moment. Playtests over the last months have leaked plenty of clips and systems, so a lot of the core loop is already visible to players.
Skate will launch into Early Access on September 16, 2025. Oh, the timing is tight – it’s only a couple of weeks away from the announcement.

What the playtests told us
Playtest builds have been running for months, and community uploads have shown tricks, map details, and how the online spaces might behave when servers are full. Back in June the team shipped the biggest playtest update yet, which raised the server cap to 150 players per map and added a bunch of fresh challenges.
