It has been well over a decade since Skate 3 and it took years of fan demand to get EA to actually greenlight a new entry. It has taken quite a while to get it off the ground, but it has been progressing at a rapid rate with the help of fans. The team behind the game has been holding frequent play tests and allowing players to experiment with how the game feels as it moves through development. We've seen playtests from as far back as when the actual map was untextured and there weren't detailed character models. None of that stuff is quite as important as actually getting the feel of skateboarding down, especially when that genre has evolved a lot since the series went on hiatus. Thankfully, players will be able to continue to provided feedback in a new playtest very soon. According to Insider Gaming, Skate will reportedly have a playtest from February 6th to March 19th, making it the longest playtest for the game.
The test will be only on PC and be under NDA, so don't expect any kind of major news to come out of this. There may be some leaks from some rule breakers, but this playtest likely won't be advertised in the way you'd see a big alpha or beta test for other EA titles like Battlefield. Either way, hopefully this means Skate is getting closer to being done.
