It’s been nearly a year since Session: Skate Sim was released. It’s reviews are generally pretty middle-of-the-road, but fans seem to be enjoying it quite a bit. There have been updates since launch, like a Waterpark map a few months back. Today, there’s free update available that brings the game down into the sewers with some totally tubular turtles.
Today’s update is themed after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, a film that releases tomorrow (or today, August 2, depending on where you live). It’s a good fit, as Session: Skate Sim has players diving into the genuine ’90s skateboarding way of life. It features realistic physics to bring the sport’s sensations to life. Sure, this has been done before, but never quite like this: players control each foot individually using a technique called True Stance Stick.
The learning curve is quite demanding, so the game definitely isn’t for everybody. It takes a lot of practice to even pull of simple stunts, let alone the most complicated. The game allows for players to immortalities their greatest achievements through in integrated video editing tool.
Here’s the TMNT update trailer:
The skills gained through practice will come in handy with the new update, as fans can try to conquer the New York sewer system while dressed like Leonardo, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Donatello. You’ll have to find the location first, though. A filter is available in the replay editor, and there’s a new collection of themed objects and content added in tribute to the famous franchise.
The studio promises to continue delivering regular updates and additional content, the next expected within the coming months.
Developed by creā-ture Studios and published by Nacon, Session: Skate Sim is available for PC via Steam/Epic, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series, and Xbox One. The TMNT update is available on all platforms except Nintendo Switch.
