Skate fans get stoked! Activision is remastering the original Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1 & 2 games and based on the newly-released video, it’s looking pretty rad.

Tony Hawk himself commented on the news, saying, “The original Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series is a big factor in the evolution of modern skateboarding tricks and inspiring many of the pro skaters you know and love today. I’m excited to help inspire a new generation of skateboarders and gamers – and existing fans – to grow the sport even further.”
Studio Head at Vicarious Visions, Jen Oneal, shares, “Getting the chance to bring back the original two games which had such a meaningful impact not only on gaming, but on an entire sports genre, has been an epic experience for our team, many of whom worked on the original series. We’re taking what you knew and loved from the original games and mixing that with enhanced creative tools which will allow gamers to invent brand new ways to play the game they love. We’re confident it will be the ultimate Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater experience fans have been asking for.”
