Tony Hawk
The legendary pro skater and series figurehead, with strong all-around stats and signature moves.
How it plays
How does Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 play?
The game uses a third-person perspective behind the skater. Players build scores by chaining ollies, grabs, flips, manuals, grinds, and transitions while maintaining balance and speed.
Career levels contain goals such as collecting items, reaching score targets, finding secret areas, and completing specific tricks. Completing objectives earns cash and progression, which can improve attributes and unlock additional content. Single-session free skate and multiplayer modes offer alternatives to the structured career.
Plan your run
What is the best way to play Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2?
Learn each level's ramps, rails, and gaps before attempting high scores. A reliable line usually combines an aerial trick, a grind, a manual, and a final transition rather than relying on isolated tricks.
Spend early cash on speed, ollie height, and air, then tune stats to the skater's weaknesses. Explore carefully for hidden areas and collectibles, and use reverts or manuals to connect separate sections of a run.
