Vicarious Visions has moved from the Activision side of the company to the Blizzard side moving forward, reports Gameindustry.biz<\/a>. This shift also places the studio head, Jen Oneal, on the Blizzard leadership team where she will report to Blizzard president J. Allen Brack.<\/p>\n Vicarious Visions has a wealth of work on Activision titles under its belt, most recently the Tony Hawk game resurrection in the form of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, which was well received.<\/p>\n “Forget the weird peripherals, bad sequels, and questionable ports that defined Tony Hawk\u2019s Pro Skater in the series\u2019 later years,” says Game Informer’s Brian Shea in our review.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0“Instead, remember the glory days of the late \u201890s and early \u201800s, because that\u2019s where you\u2019re going with Tony Hawk\u2019s Pro Skater 1 and 2. By returning to the first two games in the franchise and modernizing them with changes large and small, developer Vicarious Visions reminds us why we fell in love with this series in the first place.” Over the years, Vicarious Visions has been involved with myriad Activision properties, including the Skylanders and Guitar Hero franchises.\u00a0The list of games Vicarious has touched is huge, but also includes Call of Duty, Destiny, and Crash Bandicoot. Whew!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n This shift is not expected to move the 200-ish person Vicarious Visions team out of their New York company headquarters. What role Vicarious will play at Blizzard and what projects they will be working on isn’t yet known, but they will be working on existing Blizzard games and initiatives, as far as the initial scope goes.<\/p>\n What do you think about the change for Vicarious Visions? Is this an opportunity to buff up some Blizzard titles that could use some extra power? Are you lamenting\u00a0the potential loss of more Tony Hawk titles? Let us know what you think of the merger in the comments below!<\/p>\n [<\/em><\/a>Source: <\/em>Gameindustry.biz]<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n Vicarious Visions has moved from the Activision side of the company to the Blizzard side moving forwar…<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Vicarious Visions Merges Into Blizzard - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Vicarious Visions has moved from the Activision side of the company to the Blizzard side moving forwar..."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175044"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/37"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=175044"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175044\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":175045,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175044\/revisions\/175045"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=175044"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=175044"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=175044"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2](\\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\"){kind=logo}
