Skate Passes 2 Million Players As Dev Fixes A Major Issue


This article was originally published on link to post

A lot of people have played EA’s new Skate game since it launched on September 16. How many? According to the developers, the new Skate–the first in 15 years–reached more than 2 million players in its first 24 hours.

“Beyond stoked”

“We’re beyond stoked to welcome everyone to San Vansterdam! Thanks for your patience as we flex our servers to keep up with all the hype. Keep riding and we’ll see you out there!” the developer said.

Skate is a free-to-play game that’s available in early access across PC and console (and coming to iOS and Android later). There is no Switch 2 version.

While the game is free, EA is selling a Founder’s Pack ($25) and a Founder’s Pack Deluxe ($50) that include a variety of extras. Some early-access games raise prices when they reach 1.0, but when Skate’s 1.0 release comes in about a year, the game will remain free, EA has said.

Major issue fixed

Beyond the launch-day server struggles for Skate, one of the issues that players called out was a “soft lock” bug that prevented players from progressing beyond certain parts in the game. Many people were impacted by this issue, and developer Full Circle has now addressed it.
