EA has been working on Skate for a while, but console players will soon get a chance to ride around San Vansterdam. This fall, console players will be able to explore the city and land flashy tricks.

In addition to showing off some pre-pre-alpha footage, EA got creative at Summer Games Fest to set the tone for their announcement. The publisher highlighted the villainous M-Corp to spark players’ rule-breaking instincts. The live action sketch comedy short features SNL alum Tim Robinson as Richie Dandle and establishes the world and characters of Skate.
