EA has unveiled the official cover art for skate. and confirmed that the release date for Early Access will be shared at noon ET on Tuesday, August 26.
The timing is interesting, as the announcement comes just an hour before the scheduled week-long maintenance wraps up, which likely isn’t just a coincidence.
Regardless of when the early access date is announced, progression and inventory will be reset once the update goes live on August 26 at 1:00 PM ET. Purchases made with San Van Bucks will be refunded in equal value and remain tied to the same EA account used during the Playtest. Full patch notes will be shared on the Playtest forums ahead of release, while the Skate Insider Playtest Info Hub and official forums will be available for bug reports, technical issues and feedback.
