Skaters

The following professional skateboarders will appear as in-game characters in Skate 2[2][3][4][5][6]:

Development

In February 2008 EA games president Frank Gibeau spoke in a presentation for industry analysts stating that the original game posted bigger numbers on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 than rival Tony Hawk's Proving Ground. Because of these surprising numbers the company had decided to begin work on a sequel.[7] Then in May 2008 the sequel was officially announced, however no details were released except the platforms it would be released for, Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.[1] There is a pre-order option available on the skate. website, and the official release date is 1/9/09.

EA Black Box, the developers of the game, have noted that areas of New San Vanelona are directly inspired by three major skateboarding cities; Barcelona, Spain, San Francisco, California and Vancouver, British Columbia, the city where their offices are located.[8]
