There are few sports videogames that are as beloved as the defunct Skate series, which revolutionized skateboarding videogames back in the Xbox 360/PS3 era, and fans have been begging EA to make a sequel ever since Skate 3 released in 2010. The studio that made the Skate games, EA Black Box, was shut down in 2013, leaving little hope for a Skate 4 to ever materialize.
A full decade after the last game in the series was released, EA closed its EA Play event on Thursday with a stunning announcement. Crehttps://twitter.com/cantguardjulio/status/1273766877181939713ative director Cuz Parry and game director Deran Chung revealed that a new Skate game is in the works. Chung said that it’s “really early,” and no footage or teasers were shown, so it may be quite a while before we see what next-gen Skate can look like, but it’s happening, and gamers are ecstatic.
