Tony Hawk Aims for Underground Remake

If you've been yearning for a return to Tony Hawk's Underground, you're not alone — Tony Hawk himself is "campaigning" for a remake, too. "I always have aspirations," Hawk shared with ScreenRant. "It's not up to me generally. I'll campaign all I can, but I'm working with a much bigger company that's a lot smarter than me." When questioned about Activision's plans following the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, Hawk remained tight-lipped, saying, "We haven't even released this game [yet]!"

Tony Hawk's Underground, which hit the shelves back in 2003, earned a stellar 9.2 review score from us due to its "virtually flawless" level design and "stellar gameplay." It was the first in the series to allow players to step off their boards and explore expansive levels on foot, adding a fresh layer of immersion to the beloved franchise.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 is slated for release on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and Xbox One on July 11, 2025.
