- 7.5 Skate Story is available now on PS5, PC and Switch 2. Reviewed on PS5. A copy of Skate Story was provided by the publisher .
· Jan 21, 2026 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - Skate Story is a bold, introspective experience that transforms skating into a metaphor. Its uncompromising design and surreal presentation will divide audiences, but its emotional coherence and artistic confidence make it unforgettable.
Wasbir Sadat · Dec 17, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Here he comes, here comes demon skate racer! 4 Skateorcism! Skate Story is a surreal skating adventure (it’s also bizarre as @$#% but in a good way) created by indie developer Sam Eng and published by Devolver Digital .
· Dec 13, 2025 Reviewed on PS5Read full review - GREAT You wouldn't think a glass being on a quest to eat the moon and finally sleep could be so relatable, but you'd be wrong.
Ravi Sinha · Dec 11, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Skate Story is a spectacular collision of glass and the most grounded skateboarding I’ve felt in-game.
Brodie Gibbons · Dec 09, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Learning to skate can be hell, and Skate Story proves this by taking us to what’s probably the weirdest vision of the underworld you’ll see without a belly full of Guatemalan Insanity Peppers.
Luke Reilly · Dec 09, 2025 Reviewed on PC, PS5, Switch 2Read full review - As Skate Story’s credits rolled, I wasn’t totally sure what to make of it. Despite its imperfections, I knew I liked it, but I struggled to articulate why. I won’t pretend that every metaphor or symbol resonated with me or even made sense. It’s a deeply poetic journey, and the way to enjoy any good poem is to focus more on how it made me feel rather than any literal interpretation. In that sense, I’ll fondly remember the awe I felt admiring this imaginatively conceived underworld, the adrenaline rush of barreling through courses as a shining beacon of defiance and perseverance, and the thrill of hitting stunts so sick that entire celestial bodies shatter at my awesomeness.
Marcus Stewart · Dec 08, 2025 Reviewed on PS5 - Skate Story is a beautiful and unique skateboarding game with great, stylized visuals and interesting characters. The movement might make you queasy and the skateboarding element could have been developed further, but it does a lot with its premise and refuses to pander to convention, which is refreshing. A wonderful creation, but not always a great game.
Justin Towell · Dec 08, 2025 Reviewed on PC, PS5, Switch 2Read full review - Skate Story is an allegorical love letter to skateboarding that expertly captures the essence of skating’s humbling mechanical vocabulary like few other games do.
· Dec 08, 2025 Reviewed on PCRead full review - Skate Story is a perfect indie game, beautiful, off-kilter and unreal, with an absolutely killer soundtrack. Sam Eng can forget about eating the moon; he’s achieved something incredible down here on Earth.
