Overview

  • Early Access arrives on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and the EA app with cross-play and cross-progression.
  • Full Circle’s live-service setup requires a constant online connection, with shared San Vansterdam instances supporting up to 150 skaters.
  • Monetization is limited to optional cosmetics alongside a Skate Pass, with seasons planned roughly every three months and the first starting shortly after launch.
  • Gameplay centers on a rebuilt Flick-It trick system, refined physics, off-board parkour movement, and social tools to drop ramps, edit spots, and record replays.
  • Developers position Early Access as a community-driven phase ahead of a targeted full release in about a year, with a mobile version also in development.
