What is up guys? We have some big news dropping today that we think you will be very stoked about. As you may have read in the title, Skater XL 1.0 will be launching on July 7 for digital release on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and to brick and mortar retailers on PS4 and Xbox One. Preorder for Xbox One and Playstation 4 discs is available at select retailers.
As we said in our previous post, all PC Early Access supporters will receive the 1.0 content update free of charge, so no need to worry. And if you don’t own it yet, now would be a good time to get in and save when 1.0 launches in just 63 days.
