Description

Skate City captures the heart and soul of street skating in an authentic light. Players will now have the opportunity to explore five unique cities based off of real-world skate locations, including the streets of Los Angeles, Oslo, Barcelona, Miami, and Tokyo on the Apple Arcade version (First three cities are currently released on PC & Console). Set to original lo-fi beats, you can ride like a local through each city’s Challenge mode, or take it at your own pace with Endless Skate.
