The Unexpected Return of Skateboarding Games
Skateboarding video games once ruled the industry, then a decade later they were almost completely gone. Games like Tony Hawk Pro Skater and Skate 3 were some of the highest selling video games during their prime, and they dominated the GameCube, PlayStation, and Xbox game libraries. In the past few years, the genre has seen a bit of a revival with games like Session: Skate Sim, Skater XL, and THPS 1+2. All these games now have a home on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and PC.
