Yesterday information broke through skilled skateboarder Tyshawn Jones that a brand new Tony Hawks remaster is within the works and is “about to return out.” Whereas Tyshawn didn’t particularly point out which recreation was being remastered, the plain assumption was that it will be a mixture of Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater 3 and 4, to follow-up on the success Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater 1+2 remaster from a number of years in the past.
This assumption has seemingly been confirmed to be correct by a brand new report from Spanish insider eXtas1s. His observe report is considerably combined, however with regards to Xbox, and extra particularly Xbox Gamepass, he tends to be pretty dependable.
Talking on his Youtube channel, eXtas1s says that Tyshawn’s feedback helped him piece every little thing collectively, confirming {that a} undertaking named Undertaking Chicago is actually Tony Hawk’s Professional Skater 3+4.
However eXtas1s goes a bit additional by saying that he is aware of when it’s popping out. In response to what he’s heard, the remaster will launch in June of this 12 months. Much more particularly, it’s going to be shadow dropped on the Xbox Showcase occurring that month. He goes on to take a position that it’ll seemingly be out there on Recreation Cross right away, and that it’s in all probability going to return to PS5 and Change 2 as effectively.
Please notice, I took the transcript of the video in query and used Google translate to learn by means of what eXtas1s stated however haven’t included the precise textual content right here as the interpretation is moderately tough.
All of this simply leaves one query: who’s creating the brand new remaster? Vicarious Visions dealt with Tony Hawk’s professional Skater 1+2 however they had been merged into Blizzard. Nevertheless, the staff does nonetheless exist in the identical workplaces, now going by the title Blizzard Albany. They might presumably be the primary selection for dealing with the remaster.
Failing that, there’s a risk that Toys For Bob, a former Activision studio that reached a cope with Microsoft to go impartial, could possibly be dealing with the undertaking as they’ve expertise with the franchise. Though it’s doable that Toys for Bob would possibly presently be engaged on a brand new Spyro recreation.
