After what observers deemed as a "disastrous" and "glitch-ridden" debut, publisher Activision and developer Robomodo have finally rolled out a new update for their latest offering in the long-running skateboarding franchise, "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5."

However, while the update is a major one, coming in as a massive 7.8 GB patch for the PlayStation 4, Activision and Robomodo have not specified the glitches and bugs that the update address. In the general patch notes for the update obtained by EuroGamer, the update pointed out that, "Several gameplay mechanics within the levels have been updated," and "grinds were updated in several of the levels."

One of the most noted updates that patch 1.03 brought to the title was the addition of several new content, such as at least two new levels, and two new additional character campaigns. One of the characters that have been added in the new version is Tyler the Creator, together with his Cherry Bomb character. Meanwhile, aside from the new characters, some old ones were also updated, particularly their visual textures and minor fixes and improvements to their user interface.

The networking and user interface features of the title have also been overhauled to improve the online multiplayer experience of the title. Now, there are several multiplayer modes that can be unlocked for multiplayer sessions, such as "Daily Grind," Manual Mayhem," and "Skate Hoarding." There is also a new cap for maximum stat points per campaign, going from 128 to 150.

"Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5" was much hyped before its release, as the last one in the progression series, "Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4," was released back in 2002. However, the latest installment rolled out to a lot of negative reviews because of the glitches and bugs that players and observers discovered.
