Gameplay

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is a skateboarding video game played in a third-person view with its gameplay oriented towards classic arcade games. It uses the same mechanics as its predecessor 1 + 2, likewise, it also includes mechanics from all previous games up to Tony Hawk's Underground. The goal of most modes of the game is to achieve a high score or collect certain objects. The player must complete objectives to unlock levels to progress through the game. To score points, the player has to successfully perform and combine aerials, flips, grinds, lips, and manuals, with successful executions adding to the player's score. The point value of the trick is based on time maintained, degrees rotated, number of tricks performed in sequence, performing tricks on specific landmarks on the map, and the number of times the tricks have been used. Successful tricks add to the player's special meter, which, once full, allows for the execution of special tricks which are worth a great deal more than normal tricks. Bails (falling off the skateboard due to poor landing) attain no points for the attempted trick sequence and reset the special bar to empty. The game retains the core mechanics of the original titles, including trick-based skateboarding gameplay, score challenges, and level objectives.[1]
The career mode for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4, which was open-ended in the original title, has been replaced with a two-minute run wherein the player must complete as many challenges as possible, similar to the first three titles in the series.[2] The in-game timer, however, can optionally be extended up to an hour.[3]
The game features visual improvements such as 4K resolution support, enhanced textures, smoother animations, and improved lighting effects. Furthermore, it includes all original maps as well as new ones specifically made for the game.[4]
Online multiplayer supports cross-platform play for up to eight players. The Create-A-Skater mode allows for expanded customization options, while the Create-A-Park mode includes additional tools for designing custom skate parks.[5]
