About This Game

The closest to actual skateboarding you can get. Virtual Skate is the newest evolution of skateboarding games. Your hands control your feet giving you intuitive and next level board control. Skate with friends, customize your skater, grab a camera and film your tricks, or test your skills with challenging obstacle courses.

The evolution of skate game controls... First we had button presses, then single stick controls, next we had dual stick controls. Virtual Skate let's you control the board in all new dimensions. Each hand controls a foot directly, like hand boarding. Instead of having a 2D axis to control each foot, you now have full 3D control over your feet. Not only does this open up a whole new world of board control, it also let's you style your tricks in ways that aren't possible with canned animations. 

Grab a camera and actually film your tricks. The fully interactive replay mode allows you to follow skaters to film lines with ease, zoom in and out, ramp slow mo, and play back your favorite clips. Not only is the replay system immersive and nostalgic for those of us who skate, it brings a whole new skill to filming. Every skate crew has a filmer friend, someone who can actually hold a camera steady... Well now they can skate with you, rewind time in replay mode, and film the whole crew including themselves. The camera also sports a little fisheye when you zoom out enough.

Skate with up to 3 of your friends online! Hang out or get some clips with the homies. Voice chat, lip sync animations, and hand gestures let you express yourself naturally. Join a Quick Skate game to skate and socialize with new people or find your friends via the Sessions browser.

Express your style with a myriad of customization options for both your skater and your board. Make your look stand out just as much as your skating. 

Looking to challenge yourself? Test your skills on a variety of obstacle courses, get medals for beating time limits, or push yourself to beat your own time record.

Get VR motion sickness easily? Try Lines Mode, a completely stationary experience where obstacles come to you. No movement, no rotation, all the same skateboarding!

Customize your gameplay using the stats menu and make your experience comfortable with options like board offset, snap rotation, or a custom vignette.

Virtual Skate puts you on the board and lets you feel every pop, grind, and impact, without the broken bones and rolled ankles. Perfect for the old heads who can't huck it down big stair sets like they used to, or for rainy days that ruin a good session. Link up with friends, shred all day, and keep stacking clips.

I have only played Virtual Skate for a little bit, but that little time was enough for me to play on a selection of maps, with multiple groups of people, and get a great feeling for the game. I'll admit, it's difficult. The controls might seem janky at first, but I can assure you that the skill ceiling is out of this world. Once you get the hang of it, it will feel smooth as butter. To get into some more specific things: - The game is early access, and that obviously comes with some bugs. The worst of them, in my opinion, is how at random intervals, you are basically guaranteed to disconnect from your multiplayer lobby. This sucks, because it is very hard to find the people you were just talking to again. Outside of that, the multiplayer is quite smooth. The way the body looks can be jarring, especially with how low to the ground your body gets when making certain landings. Still, for an early access game with cross-compatibility, it's quite commendable. - The controls, especial...

This game is what VR has needed for a long time. Perhaps one of the most satisfying games I've ever played. I can guarantee you a significant portion of my life will be spent within the confines of this game, and so should yours

Good god I had been waiting so long for a game like this to come out. It is hands down the best VR skateboarding, by a mile. Updating to add that I have been ending almost every night with 30-60 min of Virtual Skate. It rules.

Virtual Skate is well on it's way to becoming one of my most played VR titles. I was skeptical, but seriously, give the demo a try. This is the best and most promising VR title I've played in probably a year. The backbone of this early access title is already very solid. The controls feel surprisingly good at this early stage, and the system for performing tricks has a lot of depth already. Once you get warmed up and used to the controls, it's very easy to find yourself entering the "flow state/fun zone" where you can just sort of turn off your brain and the movements come naturally. As someone who skates in real life, it feels pretty much as good as I could hope for a game where your hands control your feet. That said, of course this is early access and so there are other areas that are quite bare. Without mods, there's currently only 2 levels, not counting the challenge gauntlets which don't work in lobbies. This is easily remedied with mods, as there are already 30+ modded levels ...

I put 25 hours hours into the demo and absolutely loved it. Now I'm playing the full game and I love it even more. Public lobbies seem bugged (I join a session but nobody is in the level), but the game literally came out 14 hours ago so I can give that a pass.

Virtual Skate is one of the most unique and satisfying games I’ve played. It pushes skateboarding games forward in a way only a passionate developer could pull off, and it stands out as an oasis in the desert of today's VR games

I took a chance on this game and I'm so glad I did. I was worried the controls would feel wonky and the game would just be a gimmick. I was so wrong. The controls feel really good and almost...natural? It's a weird feeling but after a while it starts to feel really good. It has a bit of a learning curve, but after a few minutes you will easily get the hang of the basics. This game is great and I would love to see it with a few more "free skate" maps. Other than that i don't have any gripes. Check this game out!

It is genuinely one of my favorite vr games already, I haven't encountered any flaws, and the fact that there's mod maps makes it all the much better.

Played the demo for 22 hours and it's the greatest skateboarding simulator of all time. If you understand how to manipulate the board in real life, it'll be easy for you in this game. Walking around the Seattle map finding spots, dapping up the locals and getting a sesh will never get old. If they fix the server disconnect/other plays teleporting around that was present in the demo it's a near perfect game.
