The recently launched Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4 game collection is now available at a significant discount for the first time. Gamers can purchase these remastered classic arcade skateboarding titles for $35, down from their original price of $50, at major retailers like Amazon and Walmart. This offer is valid across all supported console platforms: PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and Xbox. Furthermore, PlayStation users have the opportunity to acquire the special Collector`s Edition of THPS 3 + 4 at a reduced price, which includes a unique Birdhouse skateboard deck and various exclusive in-game items.
Standard Edition Deal
The Standard Edition of Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4 is priced at $35 (originally $50) for all platforms:
- PlayStation 5
- PlayStation 4
- Nintendo Switch 2
- Nintendo Switch
- Xbox Series X & Xbox One
Collector`s Edition Offer
The Collector`s Edition for PlayStation 5 is also on sale, reduced to $104 from $130 at Amazon and Walmart. Amazon might offer an extra 30% discount to eligible customers in specific regions, such as the Midwest. This potential coupon could further reduce the Collector`s Edition price to an impressive $72.79 after a $31.20 deduction at checkout.
Game Enhancements and Gameplay Details
The Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4 remakes boast substantial enhancements, including updated graphics, refined gameplay mechanics, brand-new levels, an expanded cast of skaters, and a fresh soundtrack. Echoing the successful remasters of the initial two titles, the skateboarding controls are exceptionally well-executed. The engaging gameplay, complemented by an outstanding soundtrack, provides a highly satisfying experience, and the newly designed levels are thoughtfully crafted.
However, a notable change in Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 4 is the absence of its original career mode. Developer Iron Galaxy Studios opted to replace the previous free-roaming structure with the traditional two-minute run format, consistent with the first three games. While this reimagined THPS 4 offers a solid experience, it deviates from the version fans might recall. This collection of remakes received a positive review, scoring an 8 out of 10 in GameSpot`s assessment of Tony Hawk`s Pro Skater 3 + 4.
Nintendo Version Specifics
A note for Nintendo users: The Switch edition includes a game card but necessitates an additional download, whereas the Switch 2 version comes as a digital download code within a physical box. Activision has confirmed that there will be no direct upgrade path available for players moving from the Switch to the Switch 2 version.
Should Amazon and Walmart deplete their stock of this promotion, Best Buy and Target are also providing a $10 discount on the standard edition.
Collector`s Edition Contents
The Collector`s Edition features a limited-edition, full-size Birdhouse skate deck. As Birdhouse is Tony Hawk`s official skateboard brand, this makes for a highly desirable collector`s item. Additionally, this edition bundles all the in-game downloadable content (DLC) found in the $70 Digital Deluxe Edition. A highlight of this content is the inclusion of two playable skaters from the Doom series: Doom Slayer and Revenant, each possessing unique special moves. Beyond the characters, the edition provides Doom-themed customization options for the Create-a-Skater mode.
The in-game bonuses include:
- Doom Slayer playable skater
- Revenant playable skater
- Unmaykr Hoverboard
- 5 Doom-themed skate decks
- 5 Doom-themed apparel items
- Wireframe Tony Shader
- Additional in-game music
While only the PlayStation 5 Collector`s Edition is currently discounted at Amazon and Walmart, the Nintendo Switch and Xbox Series X Collector`s Editions remain available for purchase at their standard price of $130.
