Latest official word from EA on Skate 4 is not good

4.7
Skate 4 was apparently too good to be true. Information out of a recent Electronic Arts earnings call reveals that the skating game is not in development, meaning the company’s community manager behind our excitement earlier this week must a sadistic sense of humor.

The community manager in question is Daniel Lingen, who recently tweeted the hashtag #skate4. No context was offered behind the tweet, but this didn’t stop the internet from blowing up with speculation of an impending sequel.

Unfortunately, EA’s Andrew Wilson confirmed during the recent earnings call that EA is “not presently making Skate 4” and the game “will not be in Fiscal Year 18.” Wilson’s statement was in response to an inquiry about unannounced games, both new and remastered, that could be coming from the publisher this year or next. While Wilson wouldn’t discuss any of these potential games during the call, Skate 4 was the only title he specifically denied.

KyloCrux Good, I wasn't that big of a fan of Skate 3. They need to worry about the security and integrity of their game servers before another game.

Lol not "good" skate is an amazing series's of games, you're just lacking taste. Enjoy your NHL 17 lol.


Immature. I like both games but i agree that EA needs to focus on quality this time around

He probably posted #Skate4 to see if people actually wanted it. I could see them making Skate 4 in the next year or two. It was all probably just a test.

Always wish they made a Skate 4, the skate series was so fun to play. :(

Sad to say the wish never come true!
