Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2has finally been announced, remastering the original two games in the critically-acclaimedTony Hawk’s Pro Skaterfranchise for modern platforms. TheTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2release dateis September 4, but it appears as though fans will be able to try the collection out ahead of time.
It’s been confirmed that theTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2pre-order bonus is a demo of the famous Warehouse level. TheWarehouse levelis the very first level in the originalTony Hawk’s Pro Skater, and many fans of the franchise have fond memories of it. Considering this, it makes sense for Activision to release the Warehouse level as a demo, as it encourages players to pre-order the game and may go a long way in convincing them to purchase the final product.

It should be noted that theTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2announcement trailer also mentions the pre-order bonus for those that get the game digitally, so it’s possible that the physical version won’t get players access to the Warehouse level. Regardless of whether one pre-ordersTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2physically or digitally, though, they’re looking at spending $39.99, which isn’t a bad price at all.
While it’s exciting that fans will be able to play the Warehouse level fromTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2before launch, an exact release date has yet to be nailed down. However, withTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2launching on September 4, one has to imagine that the Warehouse demo level will be released at some point before then. Perhaps more information will be revealed in a futureSummer Game Fest stream, or maybe Activision will make the announcement independently.
There’s a great deal of hype surroundingTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, and for good reason. It’s been well over a decade since the last high qualityTony Hawkvideo game has launched, and so many fans are excited at the opportunity to play remastered versions of the classics. The fact thatVicarious Visionsis involved in the project is also cause for excitement, as the studio previously worked onCrash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogyto great results.
IfTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2is successful, perhaps it will convince Activision to remaster moreTony Hawkvideo games or maybe even make abrand newTony Hawkgame. Time will tell, but in the meantime, fans can look forward to the launch ofTony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2in September.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2launches on September 4 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
