The Summer Update is Live! Virtual Skate's biggest update yet, and just in time for the 1 year anniversary since early access launch!This update makes the game feel like a whole new experience.Here's what we've added:

  • Full body avatars

  • Freestyle tricks (darkslides, primos, caspers etc)

  • Late flips

  • Bone breaking xray bails (can toggle off)

  • A reporting and blocking feature

  • Custom foot placement (hold pop button + opposite hand push button to move foot during setup or in grinds/manuals)

  • Smoother grind physics (no more getting snagged on ledges)

  • More responsive board rotations in air, especially out of grinds

  • TONS of bug fixes including respawn bugs, hair/replay bugs

  • And a lot more small things (for instance most maps got a little visual upgrade with lighting and textures).


There will probably be some bugs, let us know in the discord https://www.virtualskategame.com/discordHope you all enjoy! Here's to many more years of Virtual Skate!
