Activision surprised everyone this year with the sudden announcement of a remaster for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. Coming nearly five years after the first and second games got their own remaster, Tony Hawk fans are hoping the third and fourth games are remastered with the same type of quality and attention to detail as the originals.
While there’s always plenty to look forward to when it comes to a Tony Hawk Pro Skater game, the available characters you can skate as is always high on the list. Players want to skate around as their favorite skater but also try out some new characters that they never tried with the originals or characters that are new altogether.
Fortunately, the developers have already spilled the beans on plenty of confirmed characters coming to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 at launch. You can see who they are in the guide below.
All Confirmed Characters in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4, So Far
In total, there are technically 20 confirmed skaters coming to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 at the time of writing. However, two of those skaters are more of a gimmick that come with a specific edition of the game. The rest of the 18 characters are either returning skaters from the original games, or new characters to the franchise.
You can see the entire list of confirmed characters below:
Returning Characters
- Tony Hawk
- Bucky Lasek
- Steve Caballero
- Kareem Campbell
- Geoff Rowley
- Andrew Reynolds
- Elissa Steamer
- Chad Muska
- Eric Koston
- Rodney Mullen
- Jamie Thomas
- Rune Gilfberg
- Bob Burnquist
- Nyjah Houston
- Lizzie Armanto
- Leticia Budoni
New Characters
- Rayssa Leal
- Chloe Covell
- Jamie Foy
- Zion Wright
- Yuto Horgome
Exclusive Characters
- Doom Slayer
- Revenant
As you might expect, the list of returning skaters features most characters that made an appearance in the original games. There’s, of course, Tony Hawk, Bucky Lasek, Bob Burnquist, Eric Koston, Kareem Campbell, and more world-renowned skaters. However, there could still be more returning skaters on the way before the July 11, 2025 release date of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. The post-launch content updates in the game could also bring more returning skaters to the game.
Moving on, you can see there are currently five confirmed new skaters, which we don’t know a ton about yet. All of the returning and new skaters are available to every player in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 at launch.
All Editions For Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4
The same can’t be said for the exclusive characters, which currently include the Doom Slayer and Revenant Skaters. Both of these skaters are available by purchasing the Digital Deluxe Edition of the game. The Digital Deluxe Edition also comes with the Unmaykr Hoverboard skateboard, five different Skate Decks, a bonus in-game music soundtrack, and some Create-A-Skater apparel for your unique character.
This edition of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 costs $70 regardless of your platform while the Standard Edition costs $50. One of the bigger reasons to pre-order the Digital Deluxe Edition is you get three days of early access, meaning you get to start playing on July 8 instead of July 11 like the rest of the world.
It’s ultimately up to you whether the Digital Deluxe Edition is worth it. However, if you want to take things a step further, you can pre-order a Collector’s Edition of the game for $130. This comes with everything you get in the Digital Deluxe Edition, but you also get a real-life, life-sized Birdhouse skate deck. Birdhouse is Tony Hawk’s personal skateboard brand, so you’re getting something from the man himself to add to your gaming collection.
The Collector’s Edition is available for pre-order at certain retailers, but supplies certainly won’t last, so get your purchase in quickly if you want the edition. At $130, getting a life-sized skate deck along with three days of early access and some exclusive in-game content isn’t too bad of a deal, considering how pricey other Collector’s Editions can get.
Aside from all of the editions, though, you can just purchase the Standard Edition and gain access to at least 18 returning and new skaters in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. More could be on the way between now and the official launch on July 11, so we’ll keep this guide updated with more confirmed skaters if/when they are announced.
