During a recent YouTube appearance on Mythical Kitchen, Hawk revealed ongoing discussions with Activision, stating, "We're working on something—This is the first time I've said that publicly." While specifics remain undisclosed, Hawk assured fans the plans would be "something they'll truly appreciate."
The original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater launched on September 29, 1999, spawning numerous sequels and achieving massive commercial success. The 2020 release of the remastered THPS 1+2 collection initially hinted at potential remasters of THPS 3 and 4. However, the closure of Vicarious Visions, the studio behind the remaster project, led to its cancellation.

Rumors suggest a possible announcement during a Sony State of Play event this month, although nothing is confirmed. Whether this involves a new game in the franchise or a continuation of the shelved remaster project remains a mystery, adding to the excitement surrounding the anniversary. The cryptic announcement keeps fans guessing, leaving the future of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater a thrilling unknown.
