EA is bringing again the Isle of Grom in Skate Season 3, however followers aren’t pleased about it as a result of solely gamers who’ve bought a premium move will be capable to freely revisit the tutorial island. Basically, it will likely be locked behind a paywall for everybody else, which matches towards the promise EA made final 12 months earlier than Skate hit early entry.
So far, the fan response to EA’s announcement has been largely detrimental.

EA subsequently issued a response that it launched Skate in early entry “so we might construct it with gamers, not behind closed doorways … Sure, generally plans have to vary. That is a part of the deal whenever you’re constructing in public. We’re right here, we’re listening, and we will maintain shaping skate. Collectively.”
