Any self-respecting PlayStation 2 or XBOX player will have heard tales of long nights spent balancing rail grinds or ridiculously high kickflips in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 or 4. Now, with the global gaming market revenue forecasted to hit $188.9 billion by EOY 25, studios and developers are capturing that essence of nostalgia, and the market is clearly responding. One such example is Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4, released just this Friday. Twitch streamers globally are jumping into this fresh take on the nostalgic classics, as the service invites a new wave of viewers to the most engaging communities around.
With over 15.6 billion hours of gaming content watched in 2024, global live-streaming service Twitch is the central place where the gaming community converges to connect and celebrate the world of gaming and beyond. With the Create-A-Park mode in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4, Twitch streamers and their communities will be getting an opportunity to come together and create even more engaging content.
We’d love to know if you’d be interested in writing a feature on what it takes to make a remake succeed in the modern day, how nostalgia encourages communities to come together on Twitch and the cultural impacts of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 and 4 on skateboarding and gaming.
