Tony Hawk's Pro Skater is heading back to mobile platforms, but this time around, it's leaving the Game Boy Advance behind. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 and 2 will hit Switch in 2021, sometime after spring, finally bringing the full title to Nintendo's newest on-the-go device.

But first, the game is heading to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and S on March 26th, complete with next-gen upgrades. These versions will hit 1080p at 120FPS, or 4K at 60FPS, and have improved spatial audio and polished effects. Note that the PS5 and Series X versions of the game will support native 4K, while the Series S edition is upscaled from 1440p.

The Switch version, meanwhile, will likely be a faithful port of the original release, which landed in September 2020. After outlining THPS 1 and 2's fresh features on PS5 and Xbox Series X and S, Activision says simply, "For on-the-go play, the Nintendo Switch version can’t be beat, giving fans the chance to skate with their favorite pros wherever they are."

Pre-orders for PS5 and Xbox Series X and S versions are live right now. Anyone who already owns the digital version of THPS 1 and 2 for PS4 or Xbox One can score the Cross-Gen Deluxe Bundle for $10, which unlocks the next-gen upgrades and extra goodies, including secret skater The Ripper, retro Create-A-Skater gear, and old-school skins for Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, and Rodney Mullen. Players who already own the Digital Deluxe Edition will be able to download the next-gen version for free on March 26th, except in Japan.
