EA's Skate ignores critics, adds premium Skate Pass

Electronic Arts and Full Circle will launch Season 1 for the early access version of Skate on Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2025. The update introduces the Skate Pass with daily and weekly tasks, seasonal challenges, and premium rewards for subscribers. Players will access new skateable areas and cosmetics through seasonal events such as Skate-O-Ween, a Halloween-themed activity arriving this month.

Alinea Analytics reports the game achieved high player counts and ranked among September's top revenue generators. Critics have criticized the live-service model and microtransaction-heavy approach, which marks a departure from the original series. The developer faces uncertainty about whether strong initial performance can continue through the early access period and beyond.
