“I’ll give you a hint: It has TH in it,” he added.
He didn’t say whether the game would be exclusive to the PS4. Activision, the usual publisher of Tony Hawk Pro Skater games, has traditionally made them available on all game platforms.
During the same press event, Sony chief executive Kaz Hirai said that the PlayStation 4 has sold more than 18.5 million units to date, including more than 4 million during the holiday season.
