Publisher Electronic Arts and developer Full Circle announced new skate. early access Season 1 content, bringing new events and content to their free-to-play and crossplay-enabled skating game.

Here’s the new details, plus a trailer:

Skate-o-Ween – Oct. 21 – Nov. 11

Skate-o-Ween, as it’s called in San Van, is the annual Halloween celebration, less focused on the spookiness and more about getting a chuckle out of someone, creating an inventive costume, and just getting together to skate in a fun outfit.

During San Van’s Skate-o-Ween, skaters often don outfits that are callbacks to the origins of skateboarding – you’ll see costumes, wild styles, or the baggy pants and chunky shoes of the early aughts worn ironically (and sometimes unironically). What a time. Even the companies of San Van get in on the fun – seizing on the opportunity to market their brands by selling corporate mascots for people to wear around the city. 

7-Ply Maple Harvest – Nov. 18 – Dec. 2

The annual 7-Ply Maple Harvest occurs every year with the harvesting of San Van’s famous 7-Ply Maple trees. The Maple Harvest began in the early 20th century when a particularly robust variety of Maple Tree was discovered here. In the 70s, skaters discovered that by harvesting the San Van Maple every seven years, the wood produced would be perfectly suited for skateboard construction. Since then, the Harvest has evolved into a festival that embodies respect for the hearty, humble hardwood, as well as a celebration of accomplishments, growth, and reflection on the year since the last harvest.

Each of these events will have community parks updated to celebrate the event. Plus, there’s themed cosmetics you can earn from participating in the events and earning Tix, and some you can grab from the Extravert Shop in-game. Community parks are public spaces in SV with custom layouts that rotate daily. Community parks will change each season, with the most popular ones returning in future seasons. 

As you complete the in-game seasonal events, you’ll earn event currency to exchange for special Event cosmetics in-game. We’ll have more details on each event before they go live in-game.

New Challenges

Seasonal events aren’t the only thing to do during Season 1. We’ll have 40 new Challenges for Season 1, with new Challenges added weekly, on top of the Challenges already live in the game. We’ll also have Seasonal Tasks – daily, weekly, seasonal and event tasks:

• Daily (~3-5/day)- a list of objectives that update daily
• Weekly(~10/week)- an event that unlocks each week and lasts until the end of Season 1
• Seasonal (~50)- larger objectives that last all of Season 1
• Event- objectives tied to the in-game event, which reward specific event currency

New brands

There are endless ways to express yourself with new collabs and gear from some of the best brands in skateboarding. We’ve got Girl Skateboard, Chocolate skateboards, Thrasher, Royal Trucks, Vans, Dickies, & Dime already in the game, and with Season 1, we’re bringing Santa Cruz, Creature, and Independent to San Vansterdam, just to name a few.

Soundtrack additions

Now that’s just a sample of some of the cosmetics you can get through Season 1’s skate. Pass Standard Track and Premium track, but that’s not all we’re bringing to San Van for Season 1. As we’ve mentioned in The Grind, we’ll be updating the in-game soundtrack every season. This season, we’re bringing 21 new songs into the rotation, and we’re definitely bringing a 90s vibe.
