Open World · Sandbox

Skate 3's open-world sandbox and physics-driven gameplay made it a refreshing take on the skateboarding genre. Players found joy in mastering the Flickit control scheme, which grants precise control over the board, and the game's emphasis on creative line-building. The persistent online world and user-generated content features, such as custom parks and challenges, extended the game's lifespan and fostered a vibrant community of skaters.
Skate 3 features an all-new co-op mode where teammates can complete challenges together while advancing each other’s careers. From rewarding epic bails and fails with a beefed up Hall of Meat mode to honing your craft with the all-new skate.School, players of all skill levels have multiple ways to “kill it” in the game. The franchise also continues to raise the bar for user created content with the skate.Create feature suite, an innovative toolset that empowers gamers to truly express their skate style by creating their own graphics, videos, and skate parks.
