Over on the PlayStation Blog the president of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 developer Robomodo has released some new details on the game’s next-gen exclusive multiplayer modes along with the first in-game trailer.
Online free skate mode has been converted into a lobby of sorts for up to 20 players to connect and mess around between missions and other online modes. While in free skate you are able to leave the lobby and enter into completive modes / missions or change your party make up at any time.
Playing THPS5 on any Sony platform will unlock Sweet Tooth, Sackboy and Rachet heads for your custom skaters.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 will be available on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 on September 29th.

Get ready to shred up the skate park once again with the confirmation of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. After appearing on the cover of the upcoming issue of Game Informer publisher Activision has confirmed the a brand new entry in the long running Tony Hawk franchise is set to debut later this year on current gen consoles.
Returning to the series roots THPS5 focuses on completing objectives, getting high scores and finding hidden secrets through its levels. Developer Robomodo promises that the inclusion of online play and power-ups (like projectiles) will add variety to the game-play without compromising the classic feel that the THPS franchise is known for.
The last numbered Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater title, THPS4 was released in 2002 for the GameCube, PS2 and original Xbox. The last two major console releases in the franchise Tony Hawk Ride (2009) and Tony Hawk Shred (2010) received less than stellar reviews. However a reimagining of content from Pro Skaters 2 & 3, titled Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD was well received a few years back.
Get ready to lace up your shoes and kick flip the board one more time! Who’s up for a game of HORSE?

Oh, 1999. You held so much promise. I started my sophomore year of college, got settled in my dorm room, and started the school year off right – in my friend’s room playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater on the Playstation. From that moment on my love affair with the series began, and unlike my move away from skateboarding in real life after college, I remained faithful to my virtual skateboarder avatars for a long time, until the series just got plain silly (noseblunt grind on a dinosaur’s tail over a helicopter gap, anyone?). So you could imagine my glee to discover that the original, the legendary, the amazing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater was being reskinned in HD (cleverly titled Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD) and was set to be released on XBLA as a part of this year’s Summer of Arcade, the little skater punk fan in me did cartwheels.Read More
