Surf’s Up! as ‘Surf World Series’ comes to PS4
Whilst there have been many an obscure sports video games released over the years, surfing seems to be the one sport that doesn’t translate well to consoles – well not unless you count the awesome surfing mini-game in California Games that is! I spent many an hour trying to best my high score on that game and kind of miss the the fun that surfing the waves via a video game was.
Well its seems I’m not the only one to miss surfing from the comfort of my couch as Climax Studios in partnership with Vision Games Publishing and Standfast Interactive, are set to unleash Surf World Series next month. Set across some of the world’s most iconic shorelines, Surf World Series dares players to compete in a series of breathtaking arcade surfing challenges in a bid to dominate the leaderboard; challenging players to carve up the surf and score some radical waves:
