    Yes, you read that right. On March 4, 2025, after an epic countdown, Activision Blizzard will drop a bombshell that’s sure to excite every Tony Hawk fan. The chosen date, displayed as “03.04.25” in true American style, isn’t just a number—it’s a promise that something extraordinary is on the horizon. Rumor has it this announcement might just reveal a remaster of the third and fourth installments of the series. (We see you, Call of Duty fans, who caught wind of the same date on the Grind map in Black Ops 6!)

    A Remaster That Rolls Like Its Predecessor

    If you loved Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 for its slick visual overhaul and modern gameplay twist, get ready for more of that magic. The upcoming release is expected to follow a similar formula—upgraded graphics, refined mechanics, and a fresh lineup of skateboarding legends. One of those legends is Tyshawn Jones, who’s already confirmed he’s lending his skills to the project.

    New Studio, New Vibes

    Change is in the air! While the remaster of 2020 was brought to life by Vicarious Visions, this time around, the reins are in the hands of Iron Galaxy. Known for their work on the PC version of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, as well as contributions to Killer Instinct (2013), Rumbleverse, and even remasters of Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, Iron Galaxy is ready to prove that they can keep the skateboarding legacy alive—even if it means tough decisions like their recent major staff layoffs to keep the wheels turning.

    A Legacy That Still Shreds

    Since its debut in 1999, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater has not only revolutionized the skateboarding game genre but also helped popularize the sport and its namesake legend. With complex tricks, meticulously crafted levels, and killer soundtracks that defined generations, the series continues to hold a special place in our hearts (and on our playlists).

    So, get hyped, spread the word, and prepare to ride the wave of nostalgia and innovation as the countdown to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater’s next chapter begins!
