Well, of course it should get PlayStation-exclusive content. Given the franchise's history, it only makes sense.

As announced over at the PlayStation Blog , the PS4 and PS3 versions of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 will get content you won't find in the Xbox versions.

It's not a super big deal but at least it's something: We get three character heads based on classic PlayStation franchises; Ratchet ( Ratchet & Clank ), Sackboy ( LittleBigPlanet ), and Sweet Tooth ( Twisted Metal ). On top of which, developer Robomodo confirmed that the game's online mode will utilize dedicated servers to power the freeskating that supports up to 20 players.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 , the entry that brings us back to the franchise's spectacular roots, is set to release on September 29 for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. There will be PS3 and Xbox 360 versions that launch a little later, but they won't boast all the same features.
