EA has officially given Skate 3 a release date. The title will launch May 11 in the US and May 14th in UK. The game will offer skaters a more customizable experience, allowing users to create their own skate teams. For novices, the game also features the new Skate.School, designed to help teach newbies how to execute tricks, flips, or how to gently go in a forward moving direction on a skateboard.
“Since the very beginning of the Skate franchise, we have captured the true essence [of] skateboarding, be it from the feel of nailing that perfect trick, to the feeling of just hanging out and sessioning with your friends,” said Jason DeLong, the game’s Senior Producer. “For us, Skate 3 is the culmination of this endeavor – the most connected, accessible and social skateboarding experience yet.”
The game’s roster includes some of the most notorious skateboarders including Rob Dyrdek, Jason Dill and Colin McKay. The role of coach Frank will be voiced by actor Jason Lee.
