Skate 4 makes its comeback in a short video: how to register to play in the closed trials
The game is in a very early stage of development, but EA wants the community to participate in testing it to improve the product.
The development process of the new video game of the Skate franchise continues at Full Circle, the studio founded to develop this release and whatever is to come in the future. Although there is still a lot of work ahead, the team wants to involve the community, so it has announced the first tests. However, the build is very early, as can be seen in the very short video that goes along with the tweet.
"We told you we’re back, and we’re still working on it - but it’s time for you to see what we’ve been up to. It’s still early, but we want to get this right and that means we want you to be a part of it." According to the official website, Skate contributors participants have "the chance to play early versions of the game," as well as submit feedback throughout development.
"We need to scale access to skate. Gradually as development progresses to ensure a smooth experience, and that means we can’t guarantee how soon you’ll get to play." Electronic Arts has opened up a space on its website for anyone interested in being part of this process to sign up, although signing up will not guarantee being selected.
