A lot of people have played EA's new Skate game since it launched on September 16. How many? According to the developers, the new Skate--the first in 15 years--reached more than 2 million players in its first 24 hours.

"We're beyond stoked to welcome everyone to San Vansterdam! Thanks for your patience as we flex our servers to keep up with all the hype. Keep riding and we'll see you out there!" the developer said.

Skate is a free-to-play game that's available in early access across PC and console (and coming to iOS and Android later). There is no Switch 2 version.

Earlier this year, Black Panther's solo video game was canceled by EA. But that doesn't mean the King of Wakanda will be sitting out of Marvel's next adventure. Tribute Games and developer Dotemu have announced that Black Panther is joining the large roster of heroes in Marvel Cosmic Invasion alongside an unlikely addition: Cosmic Ghost Rider.

Marvel Cosmic Invasion is a side-scrolling beat-'em up that lets players pick from a group of 15 heroes to fight off an invasion from Annihilus and his forces from the Negative Zone. Players can even swap between two different heroes at any time during a battle.

On PlayStation Blog, Dotemu noted that Black Panther's move set plays up his martial arts abilities while also utilizing his vibranium daggers for long distance attacks. For up close and personal fights, Black Panther can unleash his vibranium claws during his Panther Slash attack.
