Can this non Tony Hawk and Skate game stand out on its own?
Rayan from NoobFeed writes - With the 'SXL Tampa Pro 2022 DLC Pack,' Easy Day Studios has released their first-ever Skater XL DLC pack. The DLC pack for Skater XL Tampa Pro Esports Contest is now available, with all sales going to Boards For Bros, the official charity partner of Skatepark of Tampa.
Easy Day Studios launched a new update today for Skater XL that celebrates the upcoming 28th Annual Tampa Pro skateboarding competition and the first-ever Skater XL Tampa Pro Esports Contest.
Skate 4 Alpha gameplay has leaked but in an era where the skateboarding genre has returned with new tricks, can a new Skate game compete with its rivals?
I don't remember which of these two games it was but it seemed more like a tech demo compared to what the Skate series usually has content wise. I see the skate series having wider audience potential.
I think if you just nail the gameplay aspect so it’s always just fun to skate around, do flips, tricks, getting in a flow, and you build gorgeous fun cities to skate in, it will always be a success. Just fill that world with lots of variety in its areas, lots of stuff/missions to do, and make you feel part of it, and you could simply focus on new locations every year.
Will Skate 4 be a success!? I don’t know. It’s EA. What we want from a game and what they’ll give you are often worlds apart.
The only thing other skating games have shown me is that it can't just be about skating and that's it, it needs to have some sort of story or objective etc. Like Skate does.
Its not going to be an issue because neither of those games is even close to as good as skate is.
