Not including the Tony Hawk Pro Skater HD Remake, it has been at least 4 years since the last real Tony Hawk game came out. Where Activision stopped it’s yearly release of the popular Skate title in 2011 due to poor sales.
However there is some good news for fans of the Skating game as Activision confirm the existence of a new Tony Hawk Pro Skater game coming soon, this was after Hawk first revealed the collaboration during a SiriusXM’s Demolition Radio show (via IGN), saying that “We’re working on a game, we are working on a game, it’s pretty cool.” No further information about the project was provided.
Activision’s CEO of Publishing had stated in the past that “Tony is a lasting icon. He has that Michael Jordan-ish or Jordan-esque staying power.” While the brand has taken a dive since it’s cancellation, we’re hoping that we’ll see a return of the greatness that the series used to be, before the introduction of a Guitar Hero-esque Skateboard peripheral.
