Tony Hawk Aims for Underground Remake

If you've been yearning for a return to Tony Hawk's Underground, you're in good company—Tony Hawk himself is also "campaigning" for its remake. "I always have aspirations," Hawk shared with ScreenRant. "It's not up to me generally. I'll campaign all I can, but I'm working with a much bigger company that's a lot smarter than me." When quizzed on any hints from Activision about future projects after the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, Hawk played his cards close to the vest, saying, "We haven't even released this game [yet]!"

Originally launched in 2003, Tony Hawk's Underground received a stellar 9.2 review score from us, praised for its "virtually flawless" level design and "stellar gameplay." It was a groundbreaking title, allowing players to step off their boards and explore the expansive levels on foot for the first time in the series.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is slated for release on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and Xbox One on July 11, 2025. Activision is curating the official THPS 3 + 4 playlist on Spotify, which they will update as they unveil more of the song list—check out the latest additions in our comprehensive soundtrack list here.

In an era where numerous early 2000s games are receiving modern updates, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is poised to be a standout addition to the year's lineup of remakes and remasters. As noted in IGN's Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 first impressions preview, "From its faithful recreation of what made the PS2-era classics so memorable, to its modern quality of life improvements, excellent soundtrack, and overall love letter to the series' early days, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is very much something that should be on your radar if you’re a fan of skateboarding, enjoy action sports games, or just want to play something that's simple and fun. It might be the easiest kickflip you’ll land this year."
