EA’s Full Circle Restructures, Cuts Roles to Refocus skate.

The studio says work on the early access game continues with a tighter focus on features players prioritize.

Overview

  • Full Circle announced an internal restructuring that includes layoffs, without disclosing how many roles are affected.
  • The team said development on skate. will continue, pledging to move faster, listen more closely, and deliver updates consistently.
  • Leadership described the shift as a refocus on the game’s long-term future and a concentration of resources on priority work.
  • The studio praised departing colleagues, said the decision is not a reflection of their impact, and committed to support during the transition.
  • Since its September 16, 2025 early access launch, skate. has drawn tens of millions of players, and a recent update outlined a Season 3 roadmap that labels features as either in development or on the radar.
