“And then Vicarious got kind of absorbed, and then they were looking for other developers, and then it was over.” “That was the plan even up until the release day of, we were going 3+4 ,” Hawk said.
During a Twitch live stream with former Neversoft designer Andy Gentile, Hawk stated that Pro Skater 3+4 was real until Vicarious Visions merged with Activision Blizzard.
That’s according to none other than Tony Hawk himself.
“With the ray tracing and teraflop-computing potential of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, we’ll soon be able to render the mischievous Bam Margera along with all of his tattoos and Jackass -related scars with stunning realism.Following the immense success of Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+2, Vicarious Visions was planning on giving Pro Staker 3 and 4 the remaster treatment as well, but Activision pulled the plug. “Rest assured, our whole team is hard at work to make this a reality next generation,” Kotick continued. But we all want to make sure we get him right this time, so please be patient.” Unfortunately, you won’t be able to hit the half-pipe with Bam again just yet, and for that we’re sorry. “Technology has grown in leaps and bounds since the original game was released in 1999, and we look forward to giving you the Tony Hawk experience like never before. “We’re all excited to work with Vicarious Visions to bring this series back to life and to reunite players with all of its unforgettable stages and skaters,” said Activision CEO Bobby Kotick in a prepared statement. Promising that they would release a definitive version of the 2001 classic as soon as modern processors are able to catch up to their bold vision, Activision announced today that although they will soon release a modern remaster of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, that they will hold off on remastering Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 as well until consoles are capable of rendering skateboarder and Jackass star Bam Margera in full detail.
