A prototype of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater for the Sony PlayStation, dated 41 days before the final build.

An NTSC-J licensed build, whose origins are unknown. Around the time of the final game's release, it had already been speculated that this build has slipped in with a few retail discs but no evidence supporting this claim have been found.

Notes

  • The main menu music is missing.
  • All levels are unlocked from the start.
  • Some skaters have different clothing.
  • Every board in the Equipment Select menu is accessible. Unfinished boards with a "?" symbol are also selectable, but crash the game.
  • Some levels, most notably San Francisco, are in an unfinished state.
  • Instead of a static "Tape Challenges" screen, you can scroll between each challenge.
  • Missing in-game "Sound Levels" menu.
  • The skater starts glowing when the special meter is full.
  • Going out of bounds in Downhill Jam ends the run.
  • The run ends whether a combo is finished or not.
  • While some special tricks are implemented, they're not registered as such.
  • Instead of the Vandals' song "Euro-Barge", a track from their latest album at that time, this build uses an older song of theirs called "Change My Pants (I Don't Wanna)".
