Amidst the raging rumors of a revival of the unannounced skater compilation Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, a teaser for the upcoming announcement was found, oddly enough, in the military shooter Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.

Journalists CharlieIntel noticed that an unambiguous reference appeared on the multiplayer map Grind from Black Ops 2, which was added to Black Ops 6 with the mid-season update released yesterday.
A banner spotted in one of the map’s rooms is designed in the style of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 and contains the series logo, as well as the date – 04/03/25 (American format), that is, March 4, 2025.
Considering that rumors pointed to the announcement of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, the date (03.04) was clearly not chosen by chance. Skateboarder Tony Hawk and the Xbox account CharlieIntel responded to the discovery with the “Eyes” emoji.

Let us recall that earlier professional skateboarder Tyshawn Jones, whose character was one of the playable ones in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2, let it slip about a new remaster in the Tony Hawk series, planned for release soon.
Spanish insider eXtas1s confirmed that we are talking about Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4. According to him, the collection will be released on PC, PS5, Xbox and Game Pass immediately after the (not yet confirmed) June presentation of Xbox Games Showcase 2025.
Apparently, at least the announcement of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 will definitely sound before June. Initially, the collection was supposed to be made by Vicarious Visions, but in the spring of 2022, the studio was acquired by Blizzard Entertainment.
