Will skate. be available for Mac OS, Steam OS, Proton/Linux systems (handle held PCs like the Steam Deck) for Early Access?

• We want to bring skate. to as many platforms as possible and will continue to listen to feedback and look at the feasibility of adding new platforms in the future, but for Early Access launch, Mac OS, Steam OS, Proton/Linux will not be supported.

Might still run fine, though

It's a micro-transactions store with a game built around it. Knowing EA they'll probably throw their rootkit anti-cheat in to assure investors that "hackers" won't get anything for free.

I curious why it need anti cheat for single player game. This not single player?

Otherwise you could get the microtransactions for free!

I dunno if it has a single player mode but everything we've seen of the game so far shows it heavily multiplayer focused.

Also if the names the part confusing you. This isn't a port of the original Skate game, it's a reboot.

Thank you

Unfortunately, it's a game from EA, so don't get your hopes too high.

Apex ran fine too until they blocked it with the anticheat

If they don't want it to, it won't.
