On Sept. 4, Pro Skater fans were treated to the remastered Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2. Shortly after its release, the game broke a major franchise record. As it turns out, the new game is the first to sell one million copies in its first ten days. This feat makes the reboot the fast-selling game in the Pro Skater franchise’s history and a triumph following the abysmal Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5.

The new lineup is in effort to make the game more inclusive and representative of the skating world today.
