It has been half a decade since the revamped Skate was first announced, but the time has finally arrived – you can get to taking on those multi-trick combos across the city, albeit in early access. If you’re counting down the literal seconds before you can jump into San Van and make your mark, knowing exactly when the Skate early access release time is top of that priority list. Luckily, Full Circle and EA have given us the release time goods, and here, we’ll reveal what you need to know. Skate early access release time explained Skate early access launches on September 16th and is a simultaneous global release, meaning it unlocks at a specific time based on what time zone you’re in, contrary to that of a midnight start that many other games opt for. Here is a breakdown of each time zone so you know when Skate early access hits your device: September 16th at 10:00 AM PDT September 16th at 11:00 AM MDT September 16th at 1:00 PM EDT September 16th at 2:00 PM BRT September 16th at 5:00 PM GMT September 16th at 6:00 PM CET September 16th at 8:00 PM TRT September 16th at 10:30 PM IST September 17th at 12:00 AM UTC +7 September 17th at 2:00 AM JST September 17th at 4:00 AM AEDT September 17th at 5:00 AM NZDT Does the New Zealand trick work for Skate early access? If you’re wanting to be a little sneaky and get into Skate early access ahead of others, you’d likely turn to the good old New Zealand trick as a workaround. Unfortunately, since Skate early access is a global release, you will just have to wait for your aforementioned time zone. This is mildly frustrating since a lot of games do allow for the New Zealand trick, but it’s just one of those things – 720 Melons are on the back burner for a little while longer.
