'Skate 4' Leak Suggests Players Can Build Custom Skateparks Online Together
In a new “Free Skate” mode.
New Skate 4 leaks now suggest that players will be able to build custom skateparks together in the game. According to VentureBeat‘s Jeff Grubb — who recently leaked what appeared to be pre-alpha gameplay footage of the upcoming title — Skate 4 will be placing greater emphasis on player-generated content, no doubt learning from the success of both GTA Online‘s custom races and Halo‘s fan-favorite Forge mode.
To drive this initiative, the highly-anticipated sequel will be offering fans a new game mode called “Free Skate,” which allows players to join the same server and build custom skateparks out of thin air. You’ll be free to add or take away elements like ramps in real-time and create the perfect skate arena for you and your friends.
Free Skate aside, Skate 4 will also reportedly offer a whole range of other customization options where players will be encouraged to design new skins and artwork for skateboards and outfits for their characters, similar to the inventory of fan-made content found in the Forza series.
Given that the game is still in its early stages of development, very little has been revealed by EA, so fans of the franchise should stay tuned for more updates to come.
Elsewhere in gaming, 343 Industries has finally announced the launch window for Halo Infinite‘s co-op campaign mode.
