50-player skateboarding game Wrekless announced

Wrekless

Free Range Games, a studio founded by developers of the original Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games, have announced Wrekless, an ambitious new skateboarding game,

Wrekless is in development for Windows PC (via Steam and the Epic Games Store) and will launch via early access sometime later in 2024.

The current state of Wrekless is described as a “full-featured skateboarding video game” that lets you skate online with up to 50 players, a park builder, mini games, power ups, vehicles, signs, foliage, portals, different floor materials, and “a whole lot more.”

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:

Wrekless is our love letter to skateboarding culture. Play with up to 50 skaters online, pull off outlandish tricks, chain combos, and defy gravity. Simultaneously skate, build skateparks and minigames with other skaters in real-time, and share them with the community. Build fishbowls underneath other players, drop speed boosts in front of them or delete their rail mid-grind. Drop into a DIY skater’s paradise with a nearly endless selection of parks made by the developers and players like you. Unleash your creativity with the most powerful park builder in skating games with a massive asset library. Put up a city block and skate on streets and rooftops, a beachside park with halfpipes and rails, or go off the wall with icy floors, launchers, and portals. Customize your skater, grab a board, and…SKATE. BUILD. SHARE.

Free Range Games was founded by former developers of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater and other action sports games in the 2000s. Wrekless is the massively multiplayer collaborative skateboarding game we’ve always wanted to make.
