Tony Hawk Aims for Underground Remake

If you've been yearning for a return to Tony Hawk's Underground, you're in good company—Tony Hawk himself is actively "campaigning" for a remake.

"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 what might come next from Activision after the release of Pro Skate 3 + 4, Hawk remained coy, stating, "We haven't even released this game [yet]!"

Tony Hawk's Underground, which hit the shelves in 2003, received a stellar 9.2 review score from us at the time. It was praised for its "virtually flawless" level design and "stellar gameplay." The game was groundbreaking for the series, allowing players to dismount their boards and explore the expansive levels on foot for the first time.

"In an era where it seems like every game from the early 2000s is getting a modern facelift, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is poised to be a fantastic addition to a year filled with excellent remakes and remasters," we noted in IGN's Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 first impressions preview.

"From its faithful recreation of what made the PS2-era classics so memorable, to its modern quality of life improvements, excellent soundtrack, and overall homage to the series' early days, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is definitely something to keep on your radar. Whether you're a fan of skateboarding, enjoy action sports games, or simply want to play something that's straightforward and fun, this game might just be the easiest kickflip you'll land this year."
