About

AUTHENTIC GAMEPLAY With the dual stick controls, each stick represents one of your feet. You will need to learn how to control them and transfer weight, just like on a real skateboard. The physics have been developed with a focus on realism, smoothness and immersion. Just like in real life for a new skateboarder, the first hours can seem challenging, but once you have mastered the technique, you will feel the unrivalled thrill of pulling off your very first kickflip! Session: Skate Sim also includes full options customisation, so you can enjoy the perfect experience tailored to you. A full tutorial provides all the help you need to get started, and you can choose from four difficulty levels!

    There's a deep and involving game here for skate fans who want something to really sink their teeth into, or at least there would be if it wasn't for blurry visuals, control issues, poor mission design, and frame rate issues that make for an uphill struggle that just doesn't feel worth the pain in the end.

    Session: Skate Sim is an exciting premise on its face. The skate sim genre is up and coming, with new entries promised like Skate 4. The trouble comes when you think about how much is going on in the background. Physics adjustments on the fly, animation adjustments, and massive maps. In an attempt to include this fully featured PC game on the Switch there had to be concessions and we see that in both visuals and how it plays.

    Visually, Session isn’t a great-looking game. It has muddy textures, bad character models, and the city is completely empty even during the day. There is a good variety of locations you can visit that offer plenty of skating and building opportunities, but none of it is going to wow you visually. Sound design is a bit better, but minimalist in nature.

    It’s a technically impressive demonstration of Crea-Ture’s potential, despite the bugs, but that’s where the appeal ends: the uneven visuals and difficulty curve only highlight the fact that Session is sorely lacking the fun factor that drives players to play a game in the first place. Session feels like a clinical and by-the-numbers experience, and it lacks the charm that made those skate games from two decades ago so memorable.

    Session: Skate Sim is a game of two halves at the moment. It presents a daunting, yet rewarding challenge that genuinely tries to move the genre forward through its dedication to being an authentic sim, but at the same time lacks the character and anarchy that the genre and skateboarding, in general, are synonymous with.

    It is not an easy game to learn, but more importantly, it’s also not a fun one either. Some better tutorials or alternate control options might have saved the game a little, but as it is I just can’t find any reason to recommend this to anyone outside of truly dedicated skaters willing to put the grind in.
