Skate legend Tony Hawk is set to return with his iconic series, and this time he’s bringing comedy star Jack Black back as a playable character. Black will reprise his role as Officer Dick, as well as introduce Constable Richard, his English counterpart.
Officer Dick first appeared in the 1999 game Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater as a secret skater and has since become a fan favorite. The character’s backstory reveals that he was mocked by other skaters but vowed to one day join their ranks. Black provided vocals for Officer Dick in the 2020 remake, and now he’ll be back with more laughs.
In an interview, game director Kurt Tillmanns praised Black’s inclusion in the previous game, citing him as a “really fun, interesting character.” The new game aims to continue this tradition of celebrity cameos, allowing players to skate alongside Dick and Richard. A trailer has been released showcasing both characters in action, featuring Black’s English accent.
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4 will be released on July 11th, 2025, across multiple platforms including PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and Nintendo Switch. The game will also be available through Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass PC, offering players a convenient way to access the latest installment in the series.
