Another remaster of a classicTony Hawk’s Pro Skatergame could be in the works according to a source that will allegedly feature in the project. After years of hibernation, Activision surprised fans of the franchise by remaking both the originalPro Skaterand its sequel, releasing it in 2020 to critical acclaim. Following such a successful return to the series, many have questioned why the publisher has yet to revisit the later installments, butit turns out that may finally be in the plan.
Speaking onThe Breakfast Clubpodcast, perVGC, popular professional skaterTyshawn Jones claims he will feature in as-yet-unannouncedTony Hawk’s Pro Skaterremaster, but didn’t specify which classic game Activision is revisiting. Jones, who appeared as himself inTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2in 2020, also notes that the game is “about to come out.” As with all reports of this nature, fans are cautioned to take the information with a grain of salt; rumors about anotherPro Skatergame have swirled for ages but Activision has yet to announce anything.

Jones Isn’t The Only Person To Drop Hints
Jones’s statements were enough to reignite therumor mill regarding thePro Skaterfranchise, but his comments aren’t the only hints that the series could return.Tony Hawk himself statedthat despite Activisioncanceling plans for remasters ofPro Skater 3and4,he’s since re-entered negotiations with the publisher. What that means for the reported project is open to interpretation, but Hawk did tease that the series does have a future.
Given Microsoft’s ownership of Activision, there’s the possibility thata remaster or remake ofPro Skater 3or4could see a release directly onto Xbox Game Pass. If such a title exists, it would be a major win for the subscription service, especially if it can live up to the quality ofPro Skate 1+2. Until such a time as Activision provides concrete evidence that the franchise will return once again, fans will just have to hope the rumors end up being accurate.
