Tony Hawk's Pro Skater Celebrates 25 Years with "Something" in the Works
As the legendary Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series approaches its 25th anniversary, Tony Hawk himself has confirmed that Activision is planning a special celebration.
Activision and Tony Hawk Team Up for THPS 25th Anniversary
During a recent appearance on Mythical Kitchen, Tony Hawk revealed that he and Activision are collaborating on an anniversary project. While specifics remain undisclosed, Hawk assures fans that the plans will be highly appreciated. This announcement fuels speculation about a potential new game or the revival of previously cancelled projects.
The Legacy of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
The original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater launched on September 29, 1999, and became a massive commercial success. The series spawned numerous sequels and, in 2020, a remastered collection of THPS 1+2 was released. While plans for remastered versions of THPS 3 and 4 were initially underway, they were unfortunately canceled following the closure of Vicarious Visions.
Anniversary Celebrations and Speculation
To mark the anniversary, the official THPS social media accounts have shared celebratory artwork and announced a giveaway of the THPS 1+2 Collector's Edition. This, combined with Hawk's announcement, has led to widespread speculation of a new game announcement, possibly during a rumored Sony State of Play event. However, the exact nature of the project remains a mystery.
The anticipation is high, with fans eagerly awaiting news on whether the celebration will involve a new game in the franchise or a continuation of the previously scrapped remaster project.
