The series peaked too early for the online boom in gaming, but now everyone will get their chance to compete against the rest of the world.

Even from the start of the series split-screen multiplayer was a huge pull for the Tony Hawk's games, facing off against friends in modes from trick attack to fans favourite horse. Thankfully the split screen option will be there for those wanting to take on friends and family in the same room. However, online play is where the possibilities open up.

We have already mentioned that create a park will be online allowing players to upload their own venues to the world for anyone to play, but it will also provide competitive matches.

Online play did come into the series on the later PS2 titles, and while they weren't bad 2020 can offer so much more than Tony Hawk's has been able to before.

THPS5 was fully online, but was a disaster and left out the majority of modes people want to see. Even if they decide to keep it simple, as long as the popular games are there people will be happy. As much as reliving the main game will bring people back, the community will be hugely excited to see what they do with the online side of the remaster.
