Tony Hawk's™ Pro Skater™ 3 + 4 | Reveal Trailer

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 will launch on July 11 (or July 8 if you pre-order its deluxe editions) for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. It will be available on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass PC at launch. The remake package will include new skate parks for the first time in 10 years.

The five year road to the release has been long. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 launched in 2020 to critical acclaim, immediately fueling speculation for more remakes. Those dreams were squashed when developed Vicarious Visions was merged into Blizzard in 2021 and converted into a support studio. The next year, Tony Hawk himself claimed that remakes of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4 were planned, but halted after the move.

Now, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is a reality with a new studio at the helm. Iron Galaxy Studios, the team behind Rumbleverse and Killer Instinct, is behind this package.

Activision dropped two trailers which show off the remakes’ visual overhaul and reworked skateparks. Classic locations like the airport and Canada make an appearance in the first trailer while Motorhead’s Ace of Spades plays. The soundtrack will feature other songs from the original games, including Adolescents’ Amoeba and CKY’s 96 Quite Bitter Beings, as well as newly added songs.

The second trailer, which shows off a redesigned Foundry, is focused on the Digital Deluxe edition, which gives players a whole bunch of Doom-themed goodies. That edition adds Doom decks and clothing, as well as Doom Slayer and a Revenant as skaters. Those who pre-order the Digital Deluxe edition can start playing the game on July 8. It will also get a Collector’s Edition, which includes all of the same perks, plus a full-size Birdhouse skate deck and a printed Tony Hawk autograph.

Those who pre-order the standard edition won’t get early access, but they will get a Wireframe Tony Shader as well as access to a demo in June that lets players try the Foundry park. The demo will not be available on Nintendo Switch.

As for other new features, the remake bundle will feature some brand new parks. A few new skaters are joining the original roster too, including Rayssa Leal, Chloe Covell, Jamie Foy, Zion Wright, and Yuto Horigome.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4‘s standard edition launches on July 11 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4’s Stranded mission had me hooked for hours, yet left me wanting more
I spent hours sneaking through North Korea, scavenging supplies, and clearing outposts, and I’d happily do it all again.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Stranded mission gameplay

For years, Call of Duty’s campaign mode has used big, scripted set pieces to tell the overarching story amid all the adrenaline-pumping action. The 2023 Modern Warfare 3 tried to shake up the established formula by introducing a handful of short open combat missions, and I genuinely liked the idea, but the game's overall negative reception seeped into how those missions were received.

I feared the next iteration might abandon the idea because of the backlash, but I am glad it didn't. MW4’s “Stranded” mission uses the same approach, but instead of fragmenting it across the campaign, it puts it all in a single large-scale open-world mission.

Intel Arc G3 Extreme Hands On with Acer Predator Atlas 8

Acer’s Predator Atlas 8 finally has a US release date and price, several months after the company first showed off the handheld in May. The highlight is the Intel Arc G3 Extreme chip inside, which has been adopted by only a couple of other consoles besides the Atlas 8. This version will go on sale exclusively at Best Buy on November 1 for $1,299.99.

Acer originally said the Atlas 8 would arrive in North America in October, but left pricing open at the time. The launch came amid the ongoing DRAM crunch, which has made memory more expensive across the PC industry and complicated pricing for hardware makers.

ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (2026) Review: Almost everything I want from a gaming laptop, except the price
Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 gaming laptop

Quick Take

Gaming laptops and I have a complicated relationship. One of my first gaming rigs was an Acer Predator that was already outdated when I bought it. I was a broke college kid, and that was the best I could afford. So trying out high-end gaming laptops is always fun. But ASUS' ROG Zephyrus G14 is a lot more than a laptop that can run AAA games. It is portable, so you're not lugging around a 2.5kg machine everywhere you go. It is built well, none of that plastic chassis, and can even function as a normal laptop outside of just gaming.
