Activision confirms Tony Hawk: Shred title

Remember that tweet from Tony Hawk earlier this week? That one which mentioned 'Tony Hawk: Shred' as the new title as his new game? The one that had Activision PR facepalming?

Yeah, that one: the firm's confirmed that is the title for the new game in the series.

A PR from the company told Joystiq that more information will be coming "in the coming months".

"We can confirm we've given a name to the next Tony Hawk game – Tony Hawk: SHRED", said the rep, "and more details will be revealed in the coming months."

The Hawkman outed the title earlier this week on Twitter.

"Tony Hawk: Shred. There, I said it. Actually, I named it. Somewhere a PR team is reeling," he said.

There you have it - Tony Hawk: Shred. Just please be good this time. Robobmodo, the lot behind Ride last year, are behind this one.
