Fans of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series have a reason to celebrate with the official announcement of the remake of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4. This next-gen remake is set to launch on both PS5 and PS4 platforms on July 11. The developers have undertaken a comprehensive overhaul, rebuilding the game from the ground up, to deliver a fresh yet nostalgic experience to both new and returning players.
The remade game not only incorporates original content but also enriches it with new elements. Players can look forward to a wide array of new skaters, skate parks, tricks, music, and enhanced creation tools. For those who relish the competitive spirit, the game offers two challenge-filled tours in Career mode, where players can test their skills and climb up the ranking ladder. Other modes include Single Sessions and Speedruns aimed at achieving high scores, alongside the Free Skate mode, which provides an opportunity to leisurely explore the various parks.
A significant highlight of this remake is the cross-platform online multiplayer feature, accommodating up to eight players. This not only broadens the scope for competition in various game modes but also engenders a communal experience through multiplayer Free Skate. Moreover, the development team has painstakingly remade classic parks from Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4 in stunning 4K resolution. New parks, including a uniquely crafted Waterpark set in the scenic Mojave Desert, promise a blend of nostalgia and novelty with unique skate obstacles.
To further enhance the gaming experience, the remake introduces a New Game+ mode for those seeking extended playability. Customization options have been expanded, allowing players to create a skater in much more detail than in past iterations. In addition, the game features new music tracks to complement the classic tunes, introducing an aural experience that defines the franchise’s spirit.
For those eager to jump into the game early, preorders offer early access privileges. Customers who choose to preorder will gain access to the Foundry Demo in June, which includes two playable skaters, two parks, and a curated selection of songs from the game’s much-anticipated soundtrack. Additionally, the Digital Deluxe Edition provides another tier of early access, starting three days prior to the official launch. This edition also includes extra perks such as additional skaters, tracks, skate decks, and apparel.
The most enthusiastic fans might be drawn to the Collector’s Edition, which goes a step further by offering a limited-edition full-size Birdhouse skateboard deck. This exclusive package also includes a physical copy of the game along with all benefits of the Digital Deluxe Edition.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is shaping up to be a definitive comeback for one of gaming’s most beloved franchises. With a mix of pioneering advancements and classic elements, it aims to capture the hearts of longtime fans while drawing in a new generation of gamers.
