Overview

  • The developer deployed a PS5 Pro–specific update on December 15, confirming bug fixes and optimization via the official Skate Story Bluesky account.
  • Push Square identifies the patch as version 1.006.000 at roughly 432 MB, directing PS5 Pro owners to install it for the improvements.
  • Digital Foundry’s John Linneman says the game is now “awesome” on PS5 Pro and attributes the original issues to a bug that has been addressed.
  • Post-patch reports indicate markedly smoother play for most users, though some still encounter stutters or freezes in later, more complex sections or after rapid trick sequences.
  • Performance troubles were largely isolated to PS5 Pro at launch, while the base PS5 and other platforms fared better, and the game arrived day-one on the PS Plus catalog with strong critic reviews around an 87 Metacritic average.
