Skate Bums shares Nintendo Switch release date, new trailer

Skate Bums today received its final release date. On Nintendo Switch, the title is planned for February 19, 2026.

Skate Bums, an indie skateboarding action-platformer inspired by 80s & 90s skate culture, was announced at the very end of 2023. It took a bit longer than expected as the title was first lined up for early 2024.

Here’s some additional information:

Skate Bums is a stylish skateboarding action platformer that combines high-speed action with boss battles and a quirky storyline. With simple controls the game rewards players for their creativity and exploration, offering endless fun challenges and replayability.

​Play as Lux and face off against a diverse crew of Skate Bums, each with their own signature courses. But watch out, dude! The Skate Bums won’t go down without a fight. They’ll throw everything at you, literally!

Navigate through beautifully designed side-scrolling levels, avoiding obstacles and discovering hidden secrets along the way.

Inspired by the skate culture of the 80s and 90’s, Skate Bums blends expressive 2D action with old-school flavour, all delivered in a vibrant illustrative art style.
