No updates, but they've made some progress. You can see new locations, minor customization, an early replay system, grabs, and vert from press demoing a new build at PAX West recently, and also much of that in the Switch trailer.

Yet they won't actually use early access on Steam so we can test any of that stuff and give feedback to help improve it. I don't really understand the approach here. They're obviously not holding these features back for perfection, look at everything wrong with the current build. I'd like to know why they aren't updating early access still, with anything at all, but they rarely communicate their plans so we'll probably never get any insight there. It's a mystery.

I don't think anyone here cares if any of this new stuff is rough or broken, we expect that from early access, we all just want to see some progress, try new features out first hand and want to help make them better, but they don't want any part of that it seems. It's bizarre.


Anyway, I wouldn't go expecting Session to be getting frequent updates, either. We'll have to wait and see how they actually support and update the game after the early access launch.

Yeah but they communicate and it has more features from release

[DawgVinci]

Just that you are phrasing it "brooklyn banks level" already tells us that you have no clue what you are talking about in terms of Session. It's not a level, it's their map, which will get bigger in the future, instead of just small levels like SXL has. Also the map they have right now still outclasses SXL'S Courthouse.

Has this game been abandoned or something? I've been begging for a new game like Skate 3 since forever. I noticed this game and Session are out and look to be carrying on the mantle.

But I'm getting the impression from the mixed reviews and all these threads that SkaterXL isn't in a good place and not being properly updated. Is Session worth grabbing over this? Or neither?

Grab both if you love skateboarding :) I like Session more but the grind system is better in this one in my opninion

Official content sure, but if you're into modding it's another story.
I've currently 127 modded maps in my Skater XL map folder. Some are kinda bad but most of them are fine and playable, and some are really awesome and deserve to be added officially.

I play since the release of the early access or close, I bought Skater XL in the first days of January 2019. I've played around 15-20 hours max on the official map Courthouse. And today I've near 100 hours on this game, so i spent the rest of my hours (so around 80 hours) on modded maps. So yes in terms of content, the modding community made approximatively 1 map every 2 days.

I tried session yesterday. Yes, it has more content and looks better for now. But the control and animation system feels so static compared to sxl especially grinds and slides.
Both games have its cons and pros, but none of them is dead.

So you don't think seasons grinds are way to easy and most flip tricks looks the same. Cause that's my problem and the reason I love skater xl. It gives a more "legit" skate feeling

[Vagablond]

I also tried Session, good game with incredibles graphics and very big map but in terms of control it's a hell, Skater XL is more funny and playable
