The game takes place in the United States. In the game, players create their skater and can choose a path to choose from. The styles they can choose from are either Career, Hardcore, and Rigger. The player can choose whether they want to follow the main story or branch off and choose different styles to use. Different levels are opened depending on which path is chosen and which version of the game is being played.[4]

Reception change

The game was both mixed and liked by game critics. Critics said that they liked the new moves and different skill levels. However, they did not like that the graphics glitched and that the game felt more like an expansion pack rather than an actual game.[5][6][7]
