‘Skater XL’ Console Launch Postponed Until July 28
Easy Day Studios’ Skater XL, 2018’s most talked-about skateboarding game for the PC, has been on the tip of everyone’s thumbs lately thanks to the recent announcement that the digital release is coming to XBox One, Playstation 4, PC, and the Nintendo Switch this summer (preorders for Xbox One and PS4 discs is available now at select retailers). Unfortunately, Easy Day had to push the XBox One and PS4 releases back a few weeks to the 28th, due in part to “things out of our control” according to the official statement last weekend. Nintendo Switch, however, doesn’t have an official launch date at the moment. Read to company’s statement, via Twitter, below:
What is up, guys! We just wanted to let you know that 1.0 will be launching on July 28, a few weeks later than the original date. Despite our best efforts, and due in part to things out of our control, we will be moving the launch of Skater XL 1.0 on PS4,XB1, and PC to July 28th pic.twitter.com/OaRw2n21DL

We'll be announcing a new launch date for Nintendo Switch in the coming weeks. We appreciate your patience as we finalize the game. Not to worry-between now and then, we will be showing more new content & features that will be available at launch and continuing to polish the game pic.twitter.com/MIDGGuKVGi

Like most skaters, we were eagerly anticipating this release. But we guess we’ll have to be satisfied with the Skater XL trailer, above, and our recent projects with legendary joystick-twiddler Walker Ryan, below.
