Watch Jack Black and Tony Hawk Jam, Skate, and Play TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER 1 AND 2 Remaster
We recently found out about Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 and 2 remastered, and fans are pumped! I cannot wait for the game to launch in September, and apparently Tony Hawk wasn’t going to let Jack Black wait either. In a new episode of JablinskiGames, Black jammed out with Mark Mothersbaugh of Devo, and then Hawk let Black and his sons play the newly announced game. Afterwards, they go to a skate park, and it’s a fun video to watch. While the whole video is fun to watch, the gameplay section occurs around the 3-minute mark.
The official description reads:
Skate as the legendary Tony Hawk and the full pro roster. Listen to songs from the era-defining soundtrack. Hit insane trick combos with the iconic handling of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series.
All The Original Game Modes And More: Play all the original modes and go head-to-head with local 2-Player modes. Show off your style and creativity with upgraded Create-A-Park and Create-A-Skater features. Compete against players from around the world in Multiplayer modes and leaderboards.
The supports classic D-pad and modern analog stick controls its Create-A-Park and Create-A-Skater modes have been expanded with lots of new options, and there’s online play that lets players share their creations.
There will also be more challenges added to each of the levels in the game. Hawk hopes that these games are the start of a wave of remasters:
"There's strong nostalgia and attachment to the originals, at least four, THPS one through four. One and two is the jumping off point, I would love to be able to do more down the line. Especially with [Vicarious Visions], we can make this stuff look spectacular. Even 3 and 4 were still only on PS2. It's come a long way with the technology, and I think that these guys truly are the most qualified to do it."
I’m excited to play these! Check out the trailer that was released for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 and 2 below. It will be released on September 4th, 2020.
