Alright, so, let’s dive into this. Ever thought you maxed out your gaming skills? Well, think again because New Game+ is here to mess with your head. You get to keep all those juicy stats you fought tooth and nail for in your first run. And then—bam!—you face these legacy goals that sniff at your nerves like a suspicious cat. Not to mention, there are these things called Pro Goals and Expert Challenges. Seriously, it’s like someone took your favorite old-school games, gave them a shot of espresso, and set them free.
So, check this out: in every park, you’re gunning for that elusive Platinum Score while pulling off tricks even I’m not flexible enough to imagine. And then there’s this C-O-M-B-O thing—like S-K-A-T-E but on steroids. Collect all the letters in one leap. I mean, whose twisted brain thought of that? Anyway, Expert Challenges will test your skate skills with things like speedruns and gap combos. Just don’t ask me what a gap combo is, because my idea of a combo usually involves snacks.
Now, on to Solo Tours! This is where things get interesting—or stressful. Replay your Career, but not as you. Nah, you gotta do it as each skater. Like the total opposite of being a creature of habit. You’ll tackle all these base and Pro Goals in every level. Apparently, you earn more cash and find new tricks. Oh, and they move the S-K-A-T-E letters around to mess with you—classic!
Oops, almost forgot—Multiplayer time. You can now dance with skaters from across the platforms, and yeah, I’m talking about up to eight of them. Enter the HAWK mode. It’s this mad blend of skateboarding and hide and seek—hide your letters (H-A-W-K) all over the map before someone else steals them. Sort of like Easter, but with a bit more adrenaline.
Anyway—wait, what was next? Oh right, the classic modes. You can still have a blast with games like Trick Attack, where you’re basically the scoring king, or Graffiti, tagging everything in sight. The world’s your canvas, right?
And for all of us chatterboxes, voice chat is a thing. You can toggle it on or off, even whisper in just your party’s ears, if that’s your thing.
And streamers—don’t roll your eyes—I’ve got news. Streamer Mode lets you skip tracks that might get you sidelined. Replace them with original jams and bam, you’re golden.
Whew, that was a lot. So yeah, next time you think you’ve conquered it all, this game gives you more chaos to dive into. How’s that for an adrenaline rush?
