Tony Hawk Hints at a 25th Anniversary Celebration for Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
The legendary Tony Hawk's Pro Skater franchise is turning 25, and Tony Hawk himself has confirmed that Activision is planning a special anniversary celebration.
Anniversary Plans Underway
In a recent appearance on Mythical Kitchen, Hawk revealed that he and Activision are "working on something" for the anniversary. While details remain scarce, he assured fans that the plans will be "something the fans will truly appreciate." This announcement fuels speculation about a potential new game or a revival of previously shelved projects.
Past Projects and Future Possibilities
The original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater launched on September 29, 1999. The franchise's success led to numerous sequels and, in 2020, a remastered collection of THPS 1+2. While plans for remastered versions of THPS 3 and 4 existed, they were ultimately canceled due to the closure of Vicarious Visions.
Social Media Teases and Speculation
The official THPS social media accounts have been celebrating the anniversary with new artwork and a giveaway of the THPS 1+2 Collector's Edition. This, coupled with Hawk's recent comments, has ignited speculation about a potential new game announcement, possibly during a rumored Sony State of Play event. Whether this will be a new game or a continuation of the remastered project remains a mystery. The anticipation is high amongst fans.
