EA Play Live 2020 on Thursday dished out some announcements that had fans jumping out of their seats, or shall we say sofas? 'Skate' fans had plenty to talk about when EA announced that 'Skate 4' was in the works. The announcement was made in the final minutes of the show by game director Deran Chung and creative director Chris 'Cuz' Parry, veteran developers of the franchise. According to a Polygon report, Parry said, "We’re back, we’re doing it! Skate’s happening; we’re rolling. We secretly got together. It’s the beginning; the Skate evolution continues."

Chung said they have been waiting for years to make the right game at the right time. "Really, really pleased to say that we’re here," said Chung. Fans on Twitter, while being mighty excited at the news just hoped it wouldn't be on a mobile platform. "Skate really coming back," a fan remarked. "Better be SKATE 4, no f***ing remaster," another fan hoped. "IF WE DON'T HAVE COACH FRANK WE AIN'T PLAYIN," a fan wrote. "If it’s a remake that will be the most anticlimactic thing ever," a fan said. Common tweets either read "Yasss!" or "Damn son!"

But the worry wasn't far away. "Knowing EA, it's probably coming to mobile," a fan opined. "I hope it’s actually Skate 4/a mainline skate game and not just some mobile or spin-off type thing," another fan hoped. "Thought it was skate mobile? Some skater talked about it on his podcast I forgot who it was and he said he got approached for a new skate go game," another fan asked. "This is going to be the mobile game that no one wanted," a tweet read. 

"Very likely a mobile game. One of the skaters in the previous games was asked if he wanted to be in it and he basically told them to go f**k themselves and make skate 4," a fan exclaimed. "If the physics makes sense, don't even bother. I bought skate 3 for the broken physics," a fan said. "I hope it's not Skate 3 Mobile," one fan wrote while another seconded the thought: "I swear if it's a mobile game..."

The platforms and the release date haven't been specified yet.
