Bam Margera will reportedly be included in the upcoming Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 remake, despite being left off the original announcement roster. According to skating podcast host Roger Bagley, Tony Hawk intervened and convinced Activision to add Margera to the game.
Margera made his series debut in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 in 2001 and has since appeared in every subsequent installment. His absence from the latest game sparked speculation about its inclusion due to Margera’s struggles with drug and alcohol abuse.
However, Bagley claims that Hawk “made them fly Bam back out there” after Activision initially refused to include him. The remake is set to launch on July 11th for various platforms, including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and PC.
