Canonical: https://skate3browser.com/en/wiki/creators/

Language: en. Updated: 2026-10-09.

## The original game

Skate 3 was developed by Black Box and published by Electronic Arts. EA’s announcement identifies it as a PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game planned for May 2010. This browser preview is not an official EA release.

## The community engine

The related SK8-ENGINE repository credits dumbad’s reverse-engineering research and Chasm’s later engine work. It lists GPL-3.0-only for its original code and excludes EA asset rights. It is not confirmed as the complete corresponding source of this web binary.

## The original browser site

The original client runs at skate.aaddpp.lol. Its parent-domain portfolio identifies Asher as aaddpp / vmpprotect. The shared domain points to Asher, but that is domain-based attribution, not a verified author list for this exact web build.

## What this site changes

Skate 3 Browser adds independent player guides, language editions and a local game wrapper. Community and funding links were removed from the adapted menus. The exact web engine source and commercial permission for the game data remain unconfirmed. Removing links does not transfer ownership.
