Skate early access roadmap and future update plans

The Skate early access roadmap is starting to pan out, now that Season 1 is in full flow. We've seen the skate.Pass in action, though you don't have to purchase it as it includes a selection of free items you can earn too, and the initial Halloween-themed seasonal event has now begun. To find out what's happening now and what will arrive in the future, here's everything that's on the Skate early access roadmap for future development.

Skate early access roadmap

The Skate early access roadmap has laid out what we can expect from the game once it launches, through the first three seasons and beyond which will each last around 2-3 months. Every season is due to include the following as standard:

• New Skateable Areas
• New Challenges
• New Seasonal Events
• New Brand Partners
• New Cosmetics
• New Tracks added to the soundtrack
• Bug Fixes and Quality of Life updates

These are the future updates that have been announced for Skate early access during the first three seasons and beyond:

Skate Season 1

Skate Season 1 started on October 7, 2025, runs through December 2, and is bringing the first seasonal events to San Vansterdam as well as launching the skate.Pass – which works like a standard season pass and offers exclusive unlockable cosmetics through progress once purchased.

• 2 Seasonal Events:
  • Skate-o-Ween – October 21 to November 11
  • 7-Ply Maple Harvest – November 18 to December 2
• skate.Pass
• Quality of Life Improvements (inc. PC, HUD)

The first Skate seasonal event, Skate-o-Ween, began on October 21 and runs through November 11, 2025. This brings spooky community parks to San Vansterdam, and new event tasks to complete throughout that will unlock Chocolate coins. This event currency can be spent to unlock Skate-o-Ween gear, customization, and Build Kit items.

Skate Season 2

Skate Season 2 is due to kick off on December 2, 2025 and delivers some significant gameplay changes, including a new game mode, fresh tricks, and party voice chat so you can easily talk to the other skaters in your crew.

• New Co-Op Game Mode
• 2 Seasonal Events:
  • TBC but potentially Christmas and New Year themed
• Party Voice Chat
• New Gameplay Tricks: Impossibles & Improved Handplants
• Replay Editor Improvements

Skate Season 3 and Beyond

Following the previous timeline, it's likely that Skate Season 3 will begin in February or March 2026, although the roadmap states "Season 3 and Beyond" so some of these updates could arrive further down the line – including new game modes and more character slots so we can finally give ourselves tattoos!

• Leaderboards
• Open World Collection
• More Character Slots (eg. tattoos)
• Player Created Parks
• New Game Modes
• New Gameplay Tricks: Darkslides & Improved Footplants

That's everything we know about for now, but if anything gets added to the Skate early access roadmap then we'll update this guide with it.
