The Skater XL 0.2.0.0B update lets players pull off reverts and powerslides for “a new layer of style and expression,” along with better control of speed. There’s also new mocapped animations and sound has been remastered. You can see some of the new features in action in the video below.
All of the new features are available through the public beta branch of the game, which players must download and opt into. Updates from the previous public beta, including the Encinitas Skatepark map, have been rolled into the current public version of the game.

Skater XL is coming to PC, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. While there’s no solid release date just yet, the developer stated that the game will be out sometime in 2020 in response to a fan question on twitter.

"We don't have an exact date yet but we'll be announcing it as soon as it's confirmed. Will be this year though," read the tweet.
