The awaited Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4 remasters will not come into fruition any time soon according to Tony Hawk himself, who recently said that the plans for those two games were scrapped by Activision.
In a recent appearance during AndyTHPS’s Twitch stream, Hawk explained that hopes for the two games died when Vicarious Visions merged with Blizzard Entertainment. “I wish I could say that we had something in the works, but you know, Vicarious Visions kind of got disbanded and Activision’s going through all their stuff, so I don’t know what’s next,” he admitted.
Hawk continued that the remasters of 3 and 4 were already planned even when the remasters of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 were released, and although Activision opened up to other studios after the acquisition of Vicarious Visions, “they didn’t like anything they heard and that was it.” He added that Activision just did not trust other companies in the same way they trusted Vicarious Visions.
