The soundtrack for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 might be its most modern feature

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5
The soundtrack has been an integral part of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater franchise since the game’s inception, since you’ll no doubt hear each song countless times as you memorize level layouts and perfect skating lines.

Activision has released the soundtrack for the upcoming Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 and while there are plenty of punk and hip-hop tracks, fans hoping to revisit some of their favorite songs are going to find themselves disappointed. The soundtrack features 32 songs – the most of any game in the series to date – but they’re all brand new.

Earlier this month a new art style was revealed for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5, adding a cel-shaded look to the game’s characters. Fans who had been disappointed in the trailer for the game released in July didn’t find that the new look did much to change their opinions. While the soundtrack features a mix of well-known and under-the-radar bands, it remains to be seen how longtime fans will react.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One hits store shelves on September 29, and will feature 20-person multiplayer. The PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 version of the game, which lacks multiplayer, hits on November 10.

Why you shouldn’t expect a PlayStation 5 Pro anytime soon
The Playstation 5 system standing upright.

It seems pretty likely that Sony will eventually release a "PlayStation 5 Pro" somewhere down the line. The company has a history of making mid-generation console updates with things like the PS4 Slim and Pro, as well as the PS3 Slim, and there are current rumors suggesting that a new base model PS5 may be coming soon. All that is to say that there's certainly a precedent for an upgrade coming sooner or later, but Sony has made it clear that if a Pro model is in the works, it'll be leaning toward the "later" side of things.

Sony hasn't officially said anything about a PS5 Pro, mind you. Its focus is directed solely toward supporting its current hardware, but that focus does inform some of the context surrounding any other potential hardware releases. Based on the company's current behavior, it would appear that a major hardware upgrade like that is still years away.
The PS5's relationship to the PS4
In an interview with Axios, PlayStation Studios CEO Hermen Hulst recently said that the company is still planning on supporting the PS4 past 2022 on a "case-by-case basis." Although he didn't specify which games would also be launching on the PS4, several announced upcoming PlayStation Studios titles such as Marvel's Spider-Man 2 come to mind when thinking about the potential of cross-generational releases.
