The update revolves entirely around making Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 better to play on the Steam Deck.

Curiously, the offline mode seems to be exclusive to the Steam Deck, and running the game by default on any other PC operating system still requires an Internet connection. Players, however, have discovered a way to trick the game into thinking that it is running on a Steam Deck, even if the player is on a PC running on Windows 11.

Pretty shitty of Activision to limit that to the Steam Deck only, good thing PC users are clever.

My trick is that I emulate the games. I can play the Dreamcast upscaled version on my PC or my Retroid Pocket 2+ as much as I want with no restrictions! I bought the games like 20 years ago I don't need to buy them again
