EA has introduced microtransactions to Skate during its latest alpha test, signaling an upcoming release date announcement. As reported by Insider Gaming, developer Full Circle has integrated microtransactions into the ongoing closed alpha test of EA's free-to-play Skate revival. Players can now spend real-world money on a virtual currency called San Van Bucks, which can be used to purchase cosmetic items. Full Circle aims to test Skate’s microtransaction system, ensuring players have a "positive experience when purchasing items from the Skate store." They emphasize the importance of player feedback, stating, "Your feedback will be greatly appreciated in providing a great experience at Early Access launch."
Insider Gaming also notes that Full Circle has informed testers that all progress will be reset before Skate enters early access. Any purchases made during the alpha will be converted back into San Van Bucks and made available again at the start of early access.
Skate’s early access launch is scheduled for 2025. Initially announced during EA Play in 2020 as being "very early" in development, Full Circle has since kept the community engaged with closed community playtests of early builds and updates through its "The Board Room" video series. In 2022, the developer officially named the game ‘skate.’ and confirmed its release as a free-to-play title on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC.
