Session: Skate Sim publisher Nacon has recently unveiled a new roadmap for the skate simulator, promising three updates during 2025. Session: Skate Sim is a very faithful simulation of real-life skating, and these updates promise to polish the experience even more.
Released in 2022, Session: Skate Sim is an open-ended skate game with realistic mechanics and a strong inspiration from titles such as EA’s Skate series. Despite being an ambitious project, Session: Skate Sim failed to get positive reviews, as most critics disliked its high difficulty levels and overall lack of polish, as the game was often deemed to be janky and buggy. Over time, the developers of Session: Skate Sim have been improving on some of these aspects.
5 Awesome Things You Didn’t Know You Could Do In Session: Skate Sim
Session: Skate Sim has caused quite a stir in the skateboarding community. Here are some awesome things to do in the popular skateboarding simulator.
Now, Nacon has unveiled a short video describing the upcoming content that will be tweaked or added to Session: Skate Sim in 2025. During early summer, gamers will gain access to the Foundation Update, which is set to improve the fluidity of skating in the title, as well as update physical animations, re-factor the camera, and work on flow and friction. As the name implies, it seems that this update will focus on improving the base gameplay before polishing it further. Then, during the Flow Update, which will be released by the end of summer, the Goofy Stance will be added, flow and friction will be further improved, an in-game news feature will be added, and a new DLC will become available. Later, during the fall, the game will receive the Skate Core Update, bringing an overhaul to it and the addition of in-game social features. Hopefully, these updates will be enough to put Session: Skate Sim among the best skate games available on the market.
Session: Skate Sim Roadmap for 2025
- Foundation Update (Early Summer): Improved fluidity, camera re-factor, physical animation update, flow and friction first pass.
- Flow Update (End of Summer): Reworked powerslides and reverts, goofy stance, flow and friction pass, in-game news, new DLC.
- Skate Core Update (Fall): Skate Core Overhaul, in-game social features.
Overall, 2025 is set to be a good year for skateboarding gamers. Not only will Session: Skate Sim get these noteworthy improvements, but games like the Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 + 4 remaster will be released, giving plenty of options to skating fans, ranging from more realistic to arcade ones.
EA has also promised that the upcoming Skate game will enter early access in 2025, too. The game will not have an offline mode, and it will be a free-to-play offering with microtransactions. In more exciting aspects, the game is currently being designed to feel like a “living, breathing massively multiplayer skateboarding sandbox,” which will be constantly evolving over time, and it’ll likely be an interesting option for gamers who also like Session: Skate Sim.
