Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4

Activision and Iron Galaxy have released a new video for the upcoming Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, this time around revealing that skateboarding legend Bam Margera will be a part of the game’s roster. The description for the video also states that Margera will be one of the Secret Skaters in the game, which means that players will likely have to work at unlocking him as a member of their roster. Check out the video below.

In the video, Margera spoke about having a lot of fun with older games in the Tony Hawk’s franchise. Recounting a story about playing Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, Margera revealed that the game was so addictive for him that he ended up missing several flights. “Finally, after missing six flights, I’m like ‘I gotta put this thing away,’ because this game is just too much fun,” he recounts.

“In most sports games are just hitting a ball back and forth, until the ball gets past you,” he said. “This game, you can grind the house, you can grind up that pole, you can go down a handrail. You can do endless amounts of things. And everybody, from grandpa to a young kid can love this game.”

“I’m going to have to let myself play video games again because this one will be well worth it. If I start missing flights again, I know where to put it.”

While Margera wasn’t a confirmed member of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 roster before this video’s release, a rumour from back in March indicated that his inclusion in the roster was a demand by Tony Hawk himself. The Live Club podcast co-host Roger Bagley spoke about Hawk insisting to Activision that they add Margera to the game.

“Well, here’s what happened,” said Bagley. “The game was already done. Tony called up Activision and was like ‘hey, we’re putting Bam in the thing’, and they were like ‘hey, we can’t’. He goes ‘no, you’re gonna do it’, and basically made them fly Bam back out there to get body-scanned and everything else, and get him back in the game.”

The question of whether Margera would be a part of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 came about likely due to the skateboarder’s history with substance abuse. Things had gotten bad enough for Margera at the time that he was fired from Jackass Forever, and director Jeff Tremaine went as far as getting a restraining order against him.

An earlier behind the scenes video released for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 revealed that Magielyn Didal will be one of playable skateboarders in the upcoming game. In the video, Didal spoke about her biggest influences in the skateboarding world. The video also gave us our first look at two of the stages from the game: Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3’s Suburbia and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4’s Kona.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is coming to PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch, and will be out on July 11.
