Activision Launching ‘Tony Hawk’s Shred Session’ on iOS!
Activision and Tony Hawk have teamed up yet again to announced the upcoming launch of Tony Hawk’s Shred Session, a brand new game developed for iOS by United Kingdom-based studio Big Bit. Currently set to release this summer, Tony Hawk’s Shred Session will have players swipe the screens of their respective iOS devices with a single finger to perform tricks and combos as they skate through various levels. Because of these simple touchscreen controls leveling-up and unlocking more advanced tricks, which require additional and different swipes, will always change the game and offer something new. From the Santa Monica boardwalk to the streets of London, every location in the game also has been reimagined.
There are two modes in Tony Hawk’s Shred Session — Survival, where players pull off tricks and combos for as long as they can, and Shred Sessions, where players skate through levels to complete classic Tony Hawk game objectives or compete against other players’ highscores. In addition, players can choose to skate as one of six modern day pros (Chris Cole, Aaron Homoki, Lizzie Armanto, David Gonzalez, Riley Hawk, and Tony Hawk), each with their own signature moves. Each rider can be outfitted with real skate brand apparel and decks can be customized that include bonuses to help reach even higher scores.
Right now there is no confirmed release date, however, we’ll probably see Tony Hawk’s Shred Session land sometime this Summer once everything has been polished. In the mean time though, once we hear any more details we’ll be sure to let you know right away.
