In our virtual lab, we find ourselves like scientists dissecting the playlist for the much-anticipated Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4. Among the 96 tracks, some are familiar hits while others are newcomers that promise to keep our skateboarding experience as thrilling as ever, just like the excitement of a bomb about to go off in a rock anthem.
Activision has rolled out a teaser of the soundtrack, giving us a glimpse into both the revival of classic tunes and the introduction of fresh tracks to complement the high-energy skateboarding gameplay. The previous installment, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2, delighted fans by bringing back almost every song from the original games and mixing in a vibrant selection of new, genre-fitting music.
Returning to the stage are iconic anthems such as Motorhead’s “Ace of Spades” and CKY’s “96 Quite Bitter Beings,” lifting straight from the skate classics of the early 2000s.
