Speculation Mounts: A New Game on the Horizon?
During a recent appearance on YouTube's Mythical Kitchen, Hawk revealed the exciting news, stating, "I've been talking to Activision again, which is insanely exciting. We're working on something—This is the first time I've said that publicly." While details remain scarce, Hawk assured fans that the project would be "something the fans will truly appreciate."
The original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater launched on September 29, 1999, propelling the franchise to immense success with numerous sequels. The 2020 release of the remastered Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 (THPS 1+2) was well-received, and plans for remastering THPS 3 and 4 were initially underway. However, the closure of Vicarious Visions, the studio behind the remasters, led to the project's cancellation.
THPS Social Media Buzz
In anticipation of the anniversary, the official THPS social media channels unveiled new artwork and announced a giveaway for the THPS 1+2 Collector's Edition. This, coupled with Hawk's recent announcement, has fueled speculation of a new game reveal, potentially during a rumored Sony State of Play event this month. While unconfirmed, the possibility of a new game or the continuation of the cancelled remaster project remains exciting for fans.
