It is possible that this data only confirms that developer Vicarious Visions was experimenting with the possibility of a Switch port internally, before scrapping the project altogether, so we can not take the discovery as guaranteed evidence that the game will hit the platform in the near future .
That said, Activision has form to release Switch Gates from their remakes within a few months of their original launch, as was the case with the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (featuring Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater developer Vicarious Visions as well worked) and Spyro Reignited Trilogy.
So far, the upcoming sports action sim has been announced for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, but we’ve reached out to Activision for comment on this newly discovered information and will let you know when we hear more.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 launches in just a few weeks time, on September 4th. If you can not wait until then, it also seems that the whole selection of playable characters online has leaked as well, although beware that it contains small spoilers for a few surprising appearances.
