If you've been yearning for a revival of Tony Hawk's Underground, you're in good company—legendary skateboarder Tony Hawk is also pushing 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 asked about Activision's plans following the release of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, Hawk remained tight-lipped, simply stating, "We haven't even released this game [yet]!"

Originally launched in 2003, Tony Hawk's Underground received a stellar 9.2 review score from us at the time, praised for its "virtually flawless" level design and "stellar gameplay." This installment was groundbreaking, allowing players to step off their boards and explore expansive levels on foot for the first time in the series.
