Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 dev Vicarious Visions now "fully dedicated" to Blizzard games
The restructuring puts more THP✱S remakes into ౠdoubt

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 developer Vicarious Visions is merging into Blizzard, putting the potentiღal for another TH🦩PS remake into doubt.
Activision Blizzard owns both Vicarious Visions and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Blizzard Entertainment, and it announced the structural change for the two studios in a statement given to . Vicarious Visions' team of roughly 200 employees wil꧋l be "fully dedicated to existing Blizzard games and initiatives" starᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚting today. Despite leaving behind the Vicarious Visions name and joining the Blizzard umbrella, the team will continue to operate in Albany, New York rather than Anaheim, California.
, reports that Vicarious Visions has been working on a Diablo 2 remake called Diablo 2: Resurrection, overseen by the Blizzard division behind Diablo 4."After collaborating with Vicarious Visions for some time and developing a great relationship, Blizzard realized there was an opportunity for [Vicarious Visions] to p🎉rovide long-ter💟m support," an Activision representative told GI.biz
Vicarious Visions was founded in 1991 and purchased by Activision in 2005. Its credits are almost dizzying broad, with the studio worki﷽ng on everything from Barbie: Magic Genie Adventure to Sജpider-Man 3 and beyond. It was more recently a lead developer on Destiny 2's PC version and the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy before heading up work on Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2.
Vicarious Visions being devoted to Blizzard🐠 products rules out further work from the studio on the Tony Hawk franchise. Activision could always go forward with a Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 (🌟or whatever it would be called) from another studio, but if that was a priority for Activision right now it probably wouldn't move the original team off the series.
At least there's a good rhyme in THPS 1+2 being Vicarious Vision's last project under its own name. Arguably VV's most-acclaimed wo𓆏rk as an inde🔯pendent studio was its Game Boy Advance port of the original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2; it too was a bold yet faithful update of the Pro Skater fundamentals, built from the ground up for an entirely new platform.
