Activision Scrapped A Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 Remake After Vicarious Visions’ Merger, Said Tony Hawk
For those hoping for a follow-up to the incredible Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2 remake, you may be out of luck.
According to pro skater Tony Hawk on a livestream, Activision had briefly taken pitches from other studios, but allegedly wasn’t happy with them. In fact, a planned Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3+4 remake was canned due to Activision Blizzard’s decision to absorb the first remake’s developer Vicarious Visions, whom you now know is supporting Blizzard.
“That was the plan, even up until the release date of [1 and 2]. We were doing 3 and 4, and then Vicarious got kind of absorbed, and then they were looking for other developers, and then it was over.
The truth of it is [Activision] were trying to find somebody to do 3 and 4 but they just didn’t really trust anyone the way they did Vicarious. So they took other pitches from other studios, like, ‘what would you do with the THPS title?’ And they didn’t like anything they heard, and then that was it.
Who knows? Maybe when the dust settles, we’ll figure it out. You never know. I never would’ve thought we were going to do 1 and 2 20 years later.”
At least that last line spells hope for a THPS 3+4 remake in the future. After all, THPS 1+2 sold 1 million copies within its first two weeks, showing that quality skating games from the PS1 era remade anew have merit still.
