Urban skateboarding aficionados who enjoy perfecting their tricks in the game’s various locations now have a new environment to discover, the “Schoolyard”, inspired by the archetypal US high school. The school offers a variety of spots for the skateboarders to enjoy, including stair rails, wooden benches, planters and lunch tables. There are also 6 new objects making their appearance in the Object Dropper, for players to customise the various spots on the map.

Session: Skate Sim invites players to dive into the genuine 1990s skateboarding way of life, when each stretch of pavement and each stairway was a great location for your favorite stunt. The game's ultra-realistic physics bring the sensations of skateboarding to life, and the studio has even integrated ground-breaking gameplay, a first in a skateboarding game: the "True Stance Stick", where each foot is independently managed using the two sticks. With a learning curve that is just as demanding as in real life, players have to practice how to control their board and pull off all the different stunts available in the game, from the simplest to the most complicated. The integrated editing tool lets each player immortalize their greatest achievements on video.

Session: Skate Sim is available on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, PC (Steam, Epic Games Store) and Nintendo SwitchTM.

 

The Schoolyard additional content is available to download for €7.99.
 

You can find all the game’s additional content released before 31 December 2023 on the Year One Pack, which comprises 4 additional maps, the skateboarder Chris Cole, plus exclusive outfits and boards.

About creā-ture Studios Inc.

Here at creā-ture Studios, located in the surroundings of Montreal, Canada, we try to do things differently -- not because we have to, but simply because making games doesn't seem to be what it used to. Formed by guys who got sucked into the AAA industry for probably too long, we strive at getting back to what video games are to us. More than a product, a creā-tion, the achievement of an art form envisioned into something fun and interactive! Our goal is to bring high-quality, detail-oriented, entertaining, creative and original games to niche markets and to serve them the best we can with an inspiring mindset, creating games that will meet the needs, quality standards and requirements of the people who play them. At the end of the day, it needs to be legit and fun. For more information, visit http://www.crea-turestudios.com.
