Welcome back to The Weekly Grind.

Let’s get to it!

What’s going on?

First things first, welcome to Skate-o-Ween! Our first seasonal in-game event is running from Oct 21 - Nov 11, 2025 with updates to the city’s community parks, new event challenges, and gear for you to get through those event challenges. For more details on Skate-o-Ween, check out our event blog.

The team is working on update 0.28.5, targeting release Thursday, to help address several issues affecting players. You’ll find a list of the bugs the team is tackling down below in our Known Issues section.

We did note that last Thursday there was an issue with a Seasonal Daily Task that required earning 2 stars 4 times in Stunt Challenges but there weren’t enough Stunt Challenges on the map. That’s totally on us and the team reconfigured rotations on Friday, Oct 17 to prevent this from happening in the future. We’ll keep you updated on next steps once we’ve locked them regarding that Daily Task completion issue.

Also, we hear everyone loud and clear on the soft lock issues and we've been manually fixing those for players since Early Access release. As of Friday, we pushed another softlock fix, with more fixes on the way. If you haven’t yet, make sure to share your details on the Mega Thread as we need to fix these individually for the time being.

We appreciate your dedication and sticking with us in Early Access as we work through these issues. Make sure to check our official skate_status account on X to keep up-to-date with news and info as it comes out.

We love seeing all your clips!
On October 20th, we launched our first skate. UGC contest where you can design a shirt to be in-game. Check the official rules for details and hit up the #skate-tshirt-contest channel in the official Discord to drop your submission. Check here for details, rules, and the legal stuff.

As usual, last week saw some amazing clips, videos, and screenshots, and we wanted to share a few that caught our eye. Remember: if you want to possibly be featured in The Weekly Grind, make sure to share yours (screenshots, videos, clips) via skate.reel.

Recent Fixes

Softlock/Progression Stuck Issues (Ongoing)

  • We're working on a long term fix that will take some time, so while we do that, as mentioned above please submit via the Mega Thread here for us to individually help you.
  • Fix: Fixes are ongoing, with more rolling out between 0.28 and 0.29.

**Tasks not working after daily reset. **

  • We’re pushing out a backend code optimization to prevent tasks not resetting/working after the daily rollover on Tuesday, Oct 21, 2025 at 10PM PT.
    Please let us know in the skate. Bugs & Issues forums if you continue to experience this after this backend fix goes live.

To Be Fixed in the Coming Weeks:

  • Body flips often fail to register during the Double -Trouble Season 1 Challenge
  • Input for one-foot ollies can be inconsistent
  • Xbox X|S players may notice the update is much larger on their console than for PC and PS players
  • Slam target showing up/staying on when not in a Slam Challenge
    - Workaround: Restart game.
