<p>Tony Hawk had brought skating to a whole generation of millenials when he released Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater back in the 90s, and now he’s come back with a remaster with the help of Vicarious Visions. Just in, it’s been announced that a next-gen upgrade will be coming to THPS1+2, and what’s more, the game will also be coming to the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/tony-hawks-pro-skater-1-2" title="Tony Hawks Pro Skater 1 and 2 on Switch">Nintendo Switch</a>.</p>

<div class="direct-quote">Drop back in with the most iconic skateboarding games ever made. Play Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater & Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2 in one epic collection, rebuilt from the ground up in incredible HD. All the pro skaters, levels, and tricks are back and fully-remastered, plus more.</div>

<p>This next-gen upgrade is said to come with ‘native 4K graphics, spatial audio, and enhanced atmospheric features.’ Cross-gen progression is also a thing, so you can just port over your progress from the previous gen to the new one. No details have been released about the Switch version of the game, but it would be great if that port of the game could come with its own <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/exclusive" title="Exclusive Switch Games">exclusive</a> content.</p>

<p>It’s worth noting that upgrading the game for the PlayStation and the Xbox have a very different set of rules, but the breakdown basically goes:</p>

<ul>
<li>There is currently no upgrade offered for the physical edition for <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one" title="Xbox One Games">Xbox One</a>.</li>
       
<li>Owners of the Digital Deluxe editions can download the next-gen upgrade for free (players in Japan will have to pay 100 yen for it, though)</li>
       
<li>Owners of the digital version of the game that aren’t the deluxe edition can pay $10 for a ‘Cross-Gen Deluxe Bundle’</li>
      
<li>If you own a physical copy of the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4" title="PS4 Games">PS4</a> version, you can upgrade to the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5" title="PS5 Games">PS5</a> version, but you have to have your disc in the console when you play the next-gen version.</li>
