EA have announced today that a third instalment of the popular 'Skate' series will be making it’s way onto the Xbox 360 and PS3 in May 2010.
This time around, the focus of the game will be toward co-op play where you and a friend (or friends) can team up to complete challenges together and compete against rival crews whilst progressing through the games Career Mode.
Skate 3 will take place in an all-new skater paradise known as Port Carverton. No doubt there will be a lot of conveniently ‘skater-friendly’ buildings, parks and streets.
The third game in the series boasts that it will “raise the bar” of their in-depth ‘skate.Create’ mode, which will allow players to not only create their own videos and skate parks, but also their own graphics. Senior Producer, Jason Delong said:
"The social and community aspects of the SKATE franchise are something we've always embraced, but we've never done anything to the scale you're going to see in SKATE 3."
"We're giving gamers a very unique experience by providing them with the tools they need to build their ultimate team or to create a team comprised entirely of their online friends. From there, it's all about proving yourself - teaming up, and throwing down."
EA also announced that if you pre-order Skate 3 (when available) you will get the "Black Box Distribution Skate Park" as a bonus.
