Players will discover a deserted city, empty except for a few holdouts who are thrilled to have the city to themselves.
Through their skating players can transform the dull and gray city into a thriving metropolis by extending handrails into endless grinds, carving alleys into half pipes, morphing streets into ramps and much more.
