UK studio Big Bit is developing a new mobile-exclusive entry in the long-running Tony Hawk's Pro Skater franchise for iOS and Android devices, publisher Activision announced this week.

Tony Hawk's Shred Session features a pair of gameplay modes that put a touchscreen-specific spin on the series' traditional skateboarding mechanics. The core Shred Sessions mode features objective-based gameplay in the vein of classic series entries, letting players compare their best scores with friends. Also included is a Survival mode, which challenges players to string together a chain of tricks and combos for as long as possible.

Tony Hawk's Shred Session will launch this summer via iTunes and Google Play.
