Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 Just Added a Great Feature

It’s always a good feeling when a newly released and beloved series continues to get features and proper support after a release. As the summer days wind down, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 fans now have some extra reasons to drop back into the game’s empty swimming pools. This is because new changes to the game, a remake of the original Tony Hawk games from the 2000s, have just stuck a landing in its latest update.

In addition to fixes and game tweaks, the update (full list below) also introduced a new feature: the ability to select Create-A-Park maps in private matches. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 initially received mixed reviews, so hopefully, continual improvements to the game through these updates will be able to satisfy players.

Create-A-Park was a significant focus of the update, which also received several fixes to enhance the player experience. Previously, the Create-A-Park feature could cause issues with autosaves, produce visual bugs, and lead to problems with player control in certain situations. The majority of these issues now appear to be resolved.

This new patch also added specific fixes to different versions of the game, including PC, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation, and Xbox. Notably, on Xbox, an issue that saw guest accounts stuck on the title screen has been fixed, and a bug on PC that could cause game crashes when resizing the window was addressed.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 is currently also on sale on select platforms, making this update the perfect time to dive in for those who haven’t gotten a chance to play it after its July release. Check out the full suite of changes, courtesy of Activision, listed below.
