Skate Developer Promises More Creative Tools Are Coming After ReSkate Modding Platform Goes Viral

Full Circle, the developer behind the popular skateboarding game Skate, has responded to the surge in community mods following the release of a fan-made modding platform called ReSkate. The platform, launched about a week ago, has already garnered over 350,000 downloads on GitHub, with users able to play the game offline, create private servers, and design their own maps.

Upon the viral launch of ReSkate, Full Circle published a statement on October 9 acknowledging the importance of community mods while also asserting their stance against mods that exploit the game's paid cosmetics or release gated/unreleased content for profit. The developers expressed their appreciation for fans' passion for pushing the limits of San Vansterdam and confirmed that they are in the process of developing "official, secure access tools" to enable broader community creation.

ReSkate's popularity has had a significant impact on Skate's playerbase, with active players peaking at over 7,000 on October 5, the highest figure after the game's September 2025 launch. ReSkate's creators admitted that they were surprised by the platform's rapid growth, stating that they were "just doing it for the love of the game."

While the team at Full Circle remains open to taking down ReSkate if prompted by EA's legal team, the platform has seemingly motivated Full Circle to enhance Skate's community-friendly features.
