Fans have been waiting more than a decade for a new entry in the long-running Skate series. Skate 3 launched in 2010 and we didn't hear anything concrete about a new game until developer Electronic Arts announced Skate 4 and established a new studio called Full Circle to lead its development in 2021. In the years since, we haven't learned much more concrete information, though we do know that it'll be a free-to-play game set in the city of San Vansterdam. Players were able to playtest the game as recently as 2022, but official details have been relatively light. It appears that's changing soon as the Skate 4 (stylized as skate.) Twitter account has recently started teasing a new reveal.

The Skate 4 Twitter account has turned itself into the PR page for a company called M Corp. The new teaser includes a link to M Corp's website, which looks like something you'd see in the late 1990s. However, if you click on any link on the site, you'll be taken to the page to register for Skate 4's next playtest.

It's not immediately clear what this is building to, but it seems like we'll probably be getting a big reveal later this week. Remember, Electronic Arts is listed as one of the many partners at this week's Summer Game Fest. While EA could introduce the next Skate trailer anywhere, it would make a lot of sense to drop it at SGF, potentially with a release date. After all, the game has been in playtesting for quite a while now, so it should be relatively close to launch. Hopefully, we learn more about Full Circle's plans for Skate 4 later this week.
