skate. Says Mods Rip Off Artists and Developers as Fan Made “ReSkate” Gains Attention

However, the developers have a problem with tools that unlock paid cosmetics, expose unreleased content, or make money from unauthorized assets.

In a statement shared with the community, the team at Full Circle said it supports player creativity and understands why people want more ways to customize their experience in San Vansterdam. However, it does not want that freedom to come at the expense of the artists, skate brands, and developers responsible for creating the game's content.

The studio explained that skateboarding has always been about community and creative expression. That philosophy also influenced the design of San Vansterdam, which gives players a sandbox to skate around, experiment with tricks, and create their own content.

However, Full Circle says there is a difference between making creative mods and using unauthorized tools to access items players would normally have to pay for. The developers also called out mods that unlock restricted content before its intended release or allow people to profit from assets without permission.

According to the team, these activities take money and recognition away from the people who put work into the game, including artists, skate brands, independent creators, and Full Circle's own developers.

The statement does not mean the studio wants to shut down every mod or prevent players from customizing their experience. Full Circle specifically acknowledged the community's interest in more freedom and custom features, suggesting it understands why unofficial modifications have attracted attention.

There is also some good news for players who want more creative options. Full Circle said it is working on official, secure tools that will give the community broader access to creation features. The studio has not shared specific details about these tools or when they will become available.

Right now, players will have to wait for more information while the developers work on their plans. The message from Full Circle is that it welcomes community creativity, but it will not support unauthorized modifications that unlock paid cosmetics, expose unreleased content, or generate profit from assets without permission.
