Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 Release Date Revealed

The countdown finally hit zero, ending months of speculation, leaks, and rumours — Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is real, and it’s launching on July 11 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, Nintendo Switch, and Game Pass.

As revealed on the Tony Hawk website, the remaster includes “more skaters, new parks, gnarlier tricks, [and] eardrum shattering music”. There’s even a new “HAWK” mode where you can “prove who’s the better pro”, as well as “expanded” Create-a-Skater and Create-a-Park modes.

Tony Hawk revealed in 2022 that Vicarious Visions had been working on a remaster of Pro Skater 3 + 4, but unfortunately the project was cancelled when the studio was absorbed into Blizzard. As such, the newly announced collection is being spearheaded by Iron Galaxy instead, a studio mostly known for ports and remasters, like the PC version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2.

Tony Hawk Has Been Teasing The Collection Since Last Year

We’ve known that something was in the works for a while now. In September, to commemorate the 25th anniversary, Tony Hawk said that “there will be a future” for the series. It wouldn’t be until a few months later, when skater Tyshawn Jones outright revealed that he was “in a Tony Hawk” game, that it would be confirmed as a remaster.

The studio (now Blizzard Albany) deserves better after doing a fantastic job with Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2.

Doubts circled given Hawk’s comments about the cancelled remastered collection, but with Jones shedding new light on the “future” that Hawk had teased, many fans hoped that Activision was revisiting the idea. Shortly after, a teaser appeared in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, hinting at an announcement on March 4, ie 03/04/2025, all but confirming the rumours.
