IGN said: "Winter arrives a little earlier this year. EA has just moved the ship date for SSX On Tour from October 25 to October 11. Announced early this May, On Tour is the latest installment in the popular snowboarding series where performing tricks and winning races nets players massive points.

On Tour promises a slew of new tracks and game modes, as well officially licensed tracks from big-name artists.

"SSX On Tour is a completely fresh take on the SSX franchise," said Steve Barcia, senior producer on the game. "Building on the core speed and trick gameplay that has been so successful in the past, you can now choose your way to become a black diamond rockstar.""
