The much anticipated HD remake of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater has finally arrived. Dubbed "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD", the new game takes the best elements of the classic THPS games and gives them a "fresh update".
Featuring the same iconic levels like "Warehouse" and "Hangar" along with a soundtrack comprised of classic THPS tracks, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD will bring back that nostalgic feel of grinding of pipes and skating through half pipes – except with better graphics and motion gameplay. Tony Hawk may be a little older, but the fun is still there.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD includes seven levels, eight pros, four online multiplayer modes, and the ability to share scores of Facebook. It also contains the same global and level-specific goals, including S-K-A-T-E.
In a video released today, Tony Hawk confirmed that new DLC will be arriving in the next few weeks. This will include levels from THPS3 like "Terminal" and the just announced "Los Angeles" and "Canada". The DLC will be available for 400 MS Points, or $5.
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD is currently available on Xbox 360 via XBLA for 1200 MS Points. It is scheduled to release on PSN (PS3) and PC via Steam later this summer for $15. Exact release dates will be "announced soon".
