After the successful remastering of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, two of the best games and most loved by skate fans, Vicarious Visions started working on the remasters of the following two games of the series. Unfortunately, before we are ready, Activision decided to merge the studio with Blizzardthus canceling all your projects.
It was Tony Hawk himself who revealed this in a recent talk he had with a well-known streamer, andTHPS. The skater, who was always very involved in the development of the games, assures that other developers soughtbut things did not come to fruition.
“I wish I could say we got something in the worksbut you know that Vicarious Visions disbanded and Activision is going through all their stuff, so I don’t know what’s going to happen,” Hawk said. “I mean, that was the plan, even up to the release date of this Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1+ two we were going to do 3 + 4. Then Vicarious got a little bit absorbed, they were looking for other developers and then it was all over.”
“The truth is that they [Activision] were trying to find someone to do 3 + 4, but really they didn’t trust anyone the way they did with Vicariousso they focused on other releases from other studios and didn’t like anything they heard, and that was it.”
It is unknown if Activision is still looking for someone to handle the remasters of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 or if the thing could change when the company becomes part of Microsoft, we will see if finally this project manages to see the light. A lot of skateboarding fans would really appreciate it.
