EA would very much like you to know that it is definitely, absolutely, for sure “still working on it,” it being Skate 4, which they showed a bit of in a recent trailer. The trailer opens with a tongue-in-cheek warning that the gameplay being shown off is “pre-pre-pre-alpha” and when you take a look yourself, you can see what they mean by that. Whether pre-pre-pre-alpha is the technical term or not, mostly the game world of Skate 4 is made up of low poly blocks, grind rails, and ramps, though some sections do manage to look like the real world. In a refreshingly honest opener, the trailer does show some pretty goofy glitches, really reminding you that the game won’t be ready for a while. The rest of the trailer for the most part just looks like Skate, which is a good thing obviously! It also shows just a whole bunch of skates riding together at once, lending some strong credence to the belief that the game will have some kind of multiplayer. Don’t expect to learn anything more about the game from playtesters if you aren’t one though, as they will be unable to divulge if picked to take part. This reveal lines up with a report from earlier in the month that suggested we’d see Skate 4 in July, and while obviously not ready, we have now seen it at the very least.
