One major requested feature in previous games was the ability to personalize your character, and we are super stoked to see what you will come up with in OlliOlli World. We wanted to emulate that feeling of finding a secret skate spot and figuring out what is the best trick to land there. There are hidden ramps, sneaky jumps, quarter pipes, and other spots in which you can just take a moment to carve as you build up your score or practice your moves. This means you’ll be able to cruise down different paths discovering new side quests and more epic trick opportunities really adding to both the variety and replayability of the game. We wanted to provide a new level of freedom to explore this weird and wonderful world so now certain paths will branch off into separate directions. The locations have some real-world influences but then we injected a heavy dose of offbeat humor that we hope brings a chuckle.Īnother big addition to OlliOlli World is the ability to take multiple different paths through levels. You’ll see walking ice cream people, business frogs, Milk Shake pools, tubing Grizzly Bears, and other bizarre inhabitants. We wanted to create a world in which embodies and shares that essence, yet also feels purposeful despite all its oddity. There is a fascinating intersection of psychedelic elements and trippy influences across these communities. A major inspiration was to pull in skate culture, street art, and all the unique crossroads that develop around skating. The world is a bit quirky, and we wanted to take the game in a new visual direction that really allowed us to show it off while also emphasizing this is not a sequel, but a totally new game. We loved the retro-pixel feeling of our previous titles, but we knew with OlliOlli World we wanted to pursue a bolder, more vivid, animated style. If you are a fan of our previous games, one of the first things you will notice is the big shift in the art. We hope you get that same feeling in OlliOlli World the only difference is here those stairs might be over a gushing rainbow river that is home to a colossal squid. There is this exhilarating feeling that comes when you stick a hardflip over an especially massive stair set and we want everyone to enjoy that.
Skateboarding can be difficult and while we didn’t want to shy away from that, we wanted to make sure that it is approachable, and you are comfortable cruising around. You will need coordination, timing, and some practice to lay down monster combos. Real quick recap for everyone: OlliOlli World is an action platforming game in which you bust tricks with both sticks through a bizarre and whimsical world attempting to achieve high scores, unlock various customizations options, meet wacky and peculiar friends, and ultimately search for the skate gods of Gnarvana. We’ve been working on OlliOlli World now secretly for years, and it is so great to finally be able to show it off. We knew if we were to make a new OlliOlli, it would have to be bigger, better, and stronger, err I mean brighter than before. One that really nails that feeling of laying down a perfect line of seemingly endless tricks while lofi tracks beat in the background creating a harmony of euphoria and endorphins. While we’ve released other games, we’ve always wanted to return to our roots with another OlliOlli. It was amazing to see the reception to our games, and, not going to lie, it wasn’t bad winning a few awards along the way. Some of you may remember us back when we launched OlliOlli and OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood on the PS Vita, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4. It is great to be back to talk about our new game OlliOlli World. Hey PlayStation friends, Simon here from the Roll7 team.
