New ‘TONY HAWK’ game coming from Activision. OLLIE OF F**KING JOY

Remember back in 2000 (or was it 2001? If only we could search things on the Internet), when Tony Hawk was fucking awesome? Grinding to Primus and shit? Man. The good old days. Then Tony Hawk came out every year and it was like WAY MOST NOT GNARLY and I got tired it. But it’s been long enough for a TUBULAR REVIVAL, and the Powers that Be at Activision see that too.

Activision has confirmed the company is once again collaborating with pro skater Tony Hawk on a new video game.

“Activision can confirm that they have something in the works with Tony Hawk, more info is coming soon,” a statement provided to IGN reads. Hawk first revealed the collaboration during a segment on SiriusXM’s Demolition Radio show (via IGN), stating, “We’re working on a game, we are working on a game, it’s pretty cool.” No further information about the project was provided.

The last game to bear the Hawk moniker, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD, was developed by Chicago studio Robomodo as a collection of fan-favorite levels from the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series. That same studio also produced the faux-skateboard driven Tony Hawk: Ridein 2009 and its direct follow-up, Tony Hawk: Shred, in 2010.
