Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 is a skateboarding video game in the Tony Hawk's series developed by Robomodo and Disruptive Games, and published by Activision.[6] The game is the tenth game in the series, being the first main entry in the series since 2007's Proving Ground. The game was released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on September 29, 2015 and was critically panned. The game will see releases on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 to follow on November 10, 2015.
Gameplay
Like previous installments of the series, Pro Skater 5 features a list of playable professional skateboarders to play as, as well as offering players the ability to customize their own skaters. The game features 'Create-A-Park', a feature last seen in 2005's American Wasteland. Created parks can be shared to the online community.
The game features a selection of levels based on real-world locations, as was the case with previous Tony Hawk titles. These levels feature multiple objectives, missions, obstacles and gaps for the player to discover, complete and compete. This may be in offline single-player, or online in either co-operative or competitive multiplayer gameplay. The game is also believed to feature a character 'level up' system, which will allow the player to progress through the course of the game, both online and offline, in a 'seamless' transition of play. The level will carry from single-player to multiplayer and vice versa.
Development
On November 7, 2014, Hawk confirmed that a Pro Skater console sequel was in the works.[7] Updated news came from Hawk's appearance at Sony's CES conference in January 2015, where the skater stated that a new game was 'much further along than he anticipated' and would be coming to the PlayStation 4 console at some point during 2015.[8]
In an article published on May 5, 2015, GameInformer revealed that Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 will be the title for the next game, setting both the name and direction of the series in concrete. The game utilizes Epic Games' Unreal Engine 3 and will be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One later in the year, and PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions will follow soon after. The game is said to blend the old school mechanics of the game with new twists like power-ups and projectiles. The game boasts a new set of levels 'packed with objectives and missions [that] you can complete solo or with friends via online co-op and competitive play'.[9] Players will be able to 'level up' their character, play online or offline and create skate parks that can be shared with the rest of the world. The game will feature many professional skaters, old and new, with Tony Hawk returning as the title character, as well as 'a new generation of skaters influenced by the original titles'.
In an interview with GameSpot at E3 2015, Hawk stated that Robomodo consulted with some former Neversoft employees to ensure that the gameplay felt like the original Pro Skater titles.[10]
