EA has just announced that Skate 3 is set to release on 11 May in North America and worldwide on 14 May, bringing with it a "redefining" skateboarding experience. Well, it's got darkslides and underflips, anyway.

"Since the very beginning of the Skate franchise, we have captured the true essence of skateboarding, be it from the feel of nailing that perfect trick, to the feeling of just hanging out and sessioning with your friends," said Jason DeLong, Senior Producer. "For us, SKATE 3 is the culmination of this endeavor – the most connected, accessible and social skateboarding experience yet."

Players will be terrorising pedestrians all over the new town of Port Caverton, while the game also touts an environment editor for creating your very own hoodlum meetup.
