New screenshots have been released of EA‘s skating game, Skate It. It appears to be that Skate It is a skimmed down version of Skate for the PS3 and XBOX 360.  Skate It is scheduled for release in early May, but EA hasn’t released any info on the price. Now, the intersesting thing is, how will this compare to Skater Nation by Gameloft or Mike V: Do or Die? Non-the-less, it looks like a pretty good game from the screenshots released. Here are the key features of the game:

• FEEL IT & PICK UP AND PLAY LIKE IT’S FOR REAL: We’ve maxed out the potential of your accelerometer and gesture controls. Get a real feel of a true skate experience as you conquer the skater nirvana that is “San Vanelona” or roll through real-world locations.
• FLICK- IT & LAND YOUR TRICKS: Use the revolutionary touchscreen Flick-it controls to pull off ollies, kickflips, heelflips, Pop Shuvits, and more.
• BE IT & LIVE THE LIFE OF THE PROS: Freeskate as a selected pro skater, or as your own customized guy or girl. Score Personal Bests in Career mode, and get sponsorships and perks galore.
• KILL IT & UNLOCK STUFF: Own challenges and KILL them to get the really good stuff — from new boards to outfits. Unlock fresh skate spots, too. Gain enough gear and create your own killer skate park.
• FILM IT & SEE YOUR SKILLS IN ACTION: Capture every sick line or epic bail on camera. Replay footage to view your mastery or just for your own amusement.
• KICK IT TO YOUR OWN TUNES: You can even shred to a soundtrack from your own music library.

The application description is below as well as the new screenshots. No trailer or gameplay video has been released yet, so hopefully soon EA will release one. PocketFullOfApps will let you know when Skate It is released and if more info is released.
