Confirming the new visual style earlier this month, Activision and Robomodo released a new behind-the-scenes trailer for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 this week, showing off the revamped visuals and gameplay of the various skaters.
Featuring Nyjah Huston, Riley Hawk, Aaron “Jaws” Homoki, Ishod Wair, Leticia Bufoni, Chris Cole, David Gonzalez, Andrew Reynolds, and Lizzie Armanto, here’s what Tony Hawk had to say about the line-up of skaters:
I wanted a mix of pros that represent the diversity of skating today. Ishod Wair, David Gonzalez, and my son Riley were obvious choices because of their versatility and relevancy to modern skaters. The girls are represented well with two of the best: Leticia Bufoni on street and Lizzie Armanto on transition. Andrew Reynolds (aka The Boss) is still considered one of the best, so he is back representing the OG THPS skaters. Chris Cole and Nyjah Huston are contest dominators and phenomenal talents. And Aaron ‘Jaws’ Homoki, is a modern-day stuntman on a skateboard, dropping off the biggest stuff he can find. He was a perfect fit for the over-the-top action of THPS5.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 launches on September 29 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, with the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions expected on November 10.
