New Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 Update Lets You Shred Your Custom Maps With Friends

You can now perform sick jumps with friends online on your custom skateparks in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, thanks to a new update. Activision says players can go into private matches to grind around their DIY American wastelands and proving grounds with buddies.

In addition, the full patch notes point to improved loading times and bug fixes for all platforms, whether it’s PC, PS5, Switch 2, or Xbox Series X|S. Activision promises that tracking challenges and collectibles should be easier going forward as well in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4. Another aspect touched on with the update is “more consistent grinds and gap triggers” for the game.

Activision also touted that Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 has over 10 million hours played (as of August 13) in a press release. That doesn’t really give insight into sales data for the title, though the company was happy to say that amount of time would allow for someone to skate the planet 3,500 times. How you cross oceans on a skateboard is left unexplained, however.

Tony Hawks’ Pro Skater 3 + 4 came out last month and just got its first major discount earlier this week. Fascinatingly enough, Hawk almost gave up on even making a skateboarding game in the 1990s, right before Activision entered the picture.
