Was offline playability the biggest thing stopping you from getting Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 on the Steam Deck? Well, that won't be a problem any longer! 3 days ago, a new patch for the game was released, which made the game playable offline on the Steam Deck!

The new 1.1 patch, which has a changelog on its website, enables offline play on the Steam Deck only and fixing the keyboard overlay to ensure it works properly. Oddly enough, this is only enabled for the Steam Deck and not every version. This means you will still need to connect to the internet on all other versions of the game, including on other handhelds.

While I am happy we can now play offline on the Deck, it is a shame this doesn't carry over to other devices. For a game that has single-player modes, it is weird that the ability to play alone is locked to being connected to the internet only. Hopefully, this decision will come around to other builds of the game; it would be nice to play like this on other handhelds like the ROG Ally and AYANEO devices.
