Skate 3 might have been released in 2010, but until Skate 4 is with us, it’s still the best skateboarding game around. So grab your board, hit the streets, and pull out some sick moves with our complete guide for Skate 3 cheats. 

Skate 3 cheat codes

To activate these Skate 3 cheat codes, you need to go through the Extras menu and navigate to the Enter Cheat Code option to type them in, where you’ll receive a notification message if they’ve been input correctly. Note that these Skate 3 cheats will only work in Freeskate mode:

miniskaters – Everyone becomes tiny with a big head, feet, and arms

mcfly – Trucks and wheels are removed from boards, so they appear to hover. This is only a visual effect

deadspacetoo – Unlocks Isaac Clarke from the Dead Space series as a playable character

zombie – Adds a zombie light effect, while all pedestrians mimic zombie movements and will attack you

streetsweeper – Resets all movable objects to their original positions

dontbesomayo – Unlocks Miracle Whip sponsored clothing and objects

Skate 3 Unlockable Characters

As well as being able to access Isaac Clarke as a playable character by using the Skate 3 cheat code listed above, there are a couple more characters you can unlock by completing the Hall of Meat challenges and breaking plenty of bones. Dem Bones is a skeleton, while Meat Man is literally a gigantic chop of meat, and you can unlock both characters as follows:

Dem Bones – Beat over half of the Hall of Meat challenges

Meat Man – Beat every Hall of Meat challenge

So there we have it, all of the Skate 3 cheats and unlockable characters available in the game. Now get out there and start pulling off some gnarly tricks!

The Xbox One dashboard has outed Skate 3’s imminent arrival on backwards compatibility, with confirmation from an Xbox administrator, Mister Retr0 on xbox.com. It’s certainly got Reddit (opens in new tab) excited.

Skate 3 currently has 38,904 votes in the Xbox 360 backwards compatibility wish list (opens in new tab) on the Xbox website, above titles like Dishonored, Fable Anniversary and Halo ODST; with its existence confirmed by an official Xbox administrator, Mr Retr0.

For those who haven’t played EA’s Skate series, its appearance on current-gen consoles is long overdue: a deep, physics-based, emergent world; high on skill, spectacle and gaffes; ideal for streamers and YouTube highlight reels. Skate 3 currently has 80% critical and user reviews on Metacritic, even if some folk only know it from popular YouTuber’s PewDiePie’s comedy showreels of the game’s maddest glitches, from back in 2014.

PewDiePie made 12 odd videos of it and one, ‘Skate 3 – FUNNY MOMENTS – Part 1’ has nearly 22 million views. 

The popularity of Skate 3’s YouTube glitch comedy kept the game in the charts long after it came out and, in 2014, retailer GAME actually asked EA to repress it (when it was four years old at the time) due to customer demand. 

So, good news, even if the wait for Skate 4 goes on. FWIW, EA, if you’re worried about releasing that as a full-price title, you can trial a digital download-only F2P single ‘map’, or budget-price release, and then make all your money on extra locations, hats, decks, video filters, physics enhancements and… look, you get the picture.
