'''''Tony Hawk's''''' is a series of [[skateboarding]] video games published by [[Activision]] and endorsed by the [[Tony Hawk|American professional skateboarder of the same name]]. From 1999 to 2007, the series was primarily developed for [[Home video game console|home consoles]] by [[Neversoft]] with generally annual releases. In 2008, Activision transferred the franchise to [[Robomodo]], which released several additions before Activision and Hawk's license expired in 2015, leaving the future of the series uncertain.<ref name="VR/Expired">{{cite web|title=Tony Hawk wants his next video game to use VR|url=http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tony-hawk-wants-his-next-video-game-to-use-vr-171800052.html|publisher=Yahoo Finance|date=Dec 1, 2016|last=Mangalindan|first=JP|access-date=January 28, 2017|archive-date=January 28, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170128082854/http://finance.yahoo.com/news/tony-hawk-wants-his-next-video-game-to-use-vr-171800052.html|url-status=live}}</ref> In 2020, the series returned under Activision with a [[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2|remake of the original two games in the series]], and an upcoming remake of the third and fourth games in the series, developed by [[Vicarious Visions]] and [[Iron Galaxy]] respectively. 

Starting with ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (video game)|Tony Hawk's Pro Skater]]'' in 1999,<ref name="Fielder">{{cite web |title=Female Skater Joins ''Tony Hawk'' |url=https://www.gamespot.com/articles/female-skater-joins-tony-hawk/1100-2450562/ |website=GameSpot |last=Fielder |first=Lauren |date=August 26, 1999 |access-date=April 17, 2010 |archive-date=June 29, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150629200544/http://www.gamespot.com/articles/female-skater-joins-tony-hawk/1100-2450562/ |url-status=live}}</ref> the series was one of the [[List of best-selling video game franchises|best-selling video game franchises]] of the early 2000s. Three more ''Pro Skater'' games were released from 2000 to 2002, after which the developers took a more story-oriented approach with the releases of ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground|Underground]]'', ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground 2|Underground 2]],'' and ''[[Tony Hawk's American Wasteland|American Wasteland]]'' from 2003 to 2005. ''[[Tony Hawk's Project 8|Project 8]]'' in 2006 and ''[[Tony Hawk's Proving Ground|Proving Ground]]'' in 2007 were the final games in the series developed by Neversoft. Developer Robomodo took the franchise in a different direction with the [[peripheral]]-supported spin-offs ''[[Tony Hawk: Ride|Ride]]'' and ''[[Tony Hawk: Shred|Shred]]'', released in 2009 and 2010 to critical reviews and poor sales. Robomodo tried to revive the series with the back-to-the-roots ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD|Pro Skater HD]]'' in 2012 and ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5|Pro Skater 5]]'' in 2015. The series spawned several other spin-offs, such as ''[[Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam|Downhill Jam]]'' in 2006 and ''[[Tony Hawk's Motion|Motion]]'' in 2008, and several ports and re-releases.

Neversoft's first five ''Tony Hawk's'' received critical acclaim for their unique gameplay, varied soundtracks, and expansion over their predecessors. ''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2'' and ''Pro Skater 3'' are  ranked among the best games released for the [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] and [[PlayStation 2]], respectively.<ref name="MC"/><ref name="GSpot">{{cite web|title=Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 Review|url=http://www.gamespot.com/tony-hawks-pro-skater-3/reviews/tony-hawks-pro-skater-3-review-2820972|publisher=Gamespot|date=Oct 29, 2001|author=Jeff Gerstmann, GameSpot|access-date=January 4, 2011|archive-date=February 5, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120205081539/http://www.gamespot.com/tony-hawks-pro-skater-3/reviews/tony-hawks-pro-skater-3-review-2820972/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="PS2"/> Later entries drew less favorable reviews; ''Ride'' and ''Pro Skater 5'' were named "Worst Games of the Year" by several outlets.<ref name="gamesradar.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.gamesradar.com/f/the-anti-awards-2009/a-20100106105156509087/p-6|title=The Anti-Awards 2009|date=January 7, 2010|access-date=April 5, 2016|archive-date=February 27, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230227062938/https://www.gamesradar.com/the-anti-awards-2009/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="auto">{{cite web | url = http://www.gametrailers.com/video/most-disappointing-gt-goty/60219 | title = GameTrailers Game of the Year Awards 2009 - Most Disappointing Game | publisher = GameTrailers | access-date = 2009-12-26 | archive-date = January 17, 2012 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120117142340/http://www.gametrailers.com/video/most-disappointing-gt-goty/60219 | url-status = live}}</ref><ref name="auto1">{{cite magazine|author=EW Staff|date=December 11, 2015|url=http://www.ew.com/gallery/best-video-games-2015/2408173_worst-1-tony-hawks-pro-skater-5|title=The 10 Best (And 3 Worst!)

==Gameplay==
The ''Tony Hawk's'' series was originally developed as a classic [[arcade game]]. The goal of most modes of the game is to achieve a high score.<ref>''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, pp. 11-12</ref> To do this, the player must perform [[Aerial (skateboarding)|aerials]], [[Flip trick|flips]], [[Grind (skateboarding)|grinds]], [[Lip trick|lips]], and [[Freestyle skateboarding tricks#Manual|manuals]], with successful combinations adding to the player's score. The point value of the trick is based on time maintained, degrees rotated, number of tricks performed in sequence, performing tricks on specific landmarks on the map, and the number of times the tricks have been used.<ref>''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 6</ref> Successful tricks also add to the player's special meter, which, once full, allows the execution of special tricks that are worth a great deal more than normal tricks. Bails (falling off the skateboard due to poor landing) forfeit points for the attempted trick and reset the special bar to empty. The controls of the game developed as the series progressed. While the original ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater]]'' featured a fairly limited set of moves, later entries allowed the player to switch between moves during the same grind or manual sequence, perform transfers, hold on to and drive various vehicles, walk on foot and scale walls, [[Slow motion|slow time]], or perform more advanced tricks by pressing buttons repeatedly—for example, a double or triple [[kickflip]] instead of a normal one.<ref>''Tony Hawk's Underground 2'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, pp. 4–8</ref> Later entries, such as ''[[Tony Hawk's American Wasteland|American Wasteland]]'', allowed the player to use a [[BMX]], and ''[[Tony Hawk's Motion|Motion]]'' and ''[[Tony Hawk: Shred|Shred]]'' featured [[snowboarding]].

The first three ''Pro Skater'' games centered around an arcade mode, in which the player tries to achieve a high score, perform certain tasks, and collect a number of [[Collectable|objects]] in a limited amount of time. If the player completes enough of these [[Quest (gaming)|objective]]s in one [[level (video gaming)|level]], they unlock other levels and acquire currency, with which they can improve their character. Competition levels require the player to gain an excellent score with minimal bails to progress.<ref>''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 8</ref> Starting with ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2|Pro Skater 2]]'', it became possible to create a custom character and design [[skatepark]]s. All games until ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5|Pro Skater 5]]'' featured [[local multiplayer]], while it was possible to compete in [[online multiplayer]] since ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3]]''. Since the first ''Pro Skater'', it was possible to access all levels without having to perform tasks and without a time limit. This concept was later used in career mode from ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4|Pro Skater 4]]'' onwards.<ref>''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 8</ref> [[Non-player character]]s give tasks to the player, who could otherwise freely explore the levels without time constraints. Starting with ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground|Underground]]'', the series replaced the career mode with a story mode. In ''Underground'', ''[[Tony Hawk's Project 8|Project 8]]'', and ''[[Tony Hawk's Proving Ground|Proving Ground]]'', the story centered around the [[player character]] turning into a [[Skateboarding|professional skateboarder]].<ref>''Tony Hawk's Underground'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 11</ref> In ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground 2|Underground 2]]'', the only direct [[sequel]] in the series, the player embarks on a destruction tour around the world, orchestrated by [[Tony Hawk]] and [[Bam Margera]].<ref>''Tony Hawk's Underground 2'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 10</ref> In ''American Wasteland'', the first of the series to feature one consecutive [[open world]] instead of separate levels, the player character aims to rebuild an old skatepark in [[Los Angeles]].<ref>''Tony Hawk's American Wasteland'' (PlayStation 2) instruction manual, p. 10</ref>

After [[Activision]] took the series from [[Neversoft]], the new developer [[Robomodo]] changed the general outlet and gameplay of the franchise. ''[[Tony Hawk: Ride]]'' and its successor, ''[[Tony Hawk: Shred]]'' introduced a [[peripheral]] [[skateboard]] which replaced the [[Game controller|controller]]. To provide a realistic skateboarding experience, turning, leaning, hopping, and other actions on the peripheral device were directly translated into the movements of the in-game character via [[infrared sensor]]s. This resulted in the abandonment of open levels, which were replaced by linear levels that had the character skate on pre-set paths. A similar attempt was made with the [[Nintendo DS]] game ''[[Tony Hawk's Motion]]'', which used a peripheral device that recognized the leaning of the DS system and had the skater move accordingly.

==Skaters==

===Background===
[[File:Tony Hawk right profile.jpg|thumb|left|Tony Hawk, the series' namesake, in 2006]]

To capitalize on the growing popularity of skateboarding as a sport, [[Activision]] approached small developer [[Neversoft]] to develop a skateboarding game. According to an interview with one of the developers in 2018, Activision originally wanted a skateboard [[racing game]] similar to [[Sega]]'s [[arcade game]] ''[[Top Skater]]'', but after Neversoft showed them what their engine was capable of, the racing idea was abandoned in favor of a more free-flowing approach.<ref name="GameBrain Interview">{{cite web|title=Talking to the Original Designer of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzfmhHS0QX8 |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211217/BzfmhHS0QX8 |archive-date=2021-12-17 |url-status=live|publisher=GameBrain|date=January 1, 2018|access-date=January 10, 2018}}{{cbignore}}</ref> Activision signed professional skateboarder [[Tony Hawk]] as the face of the skateboarding game ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (video game)|Tony Hawk's Pro Skater]]''.

===Neversoft era (1999–2007)===
In early 1998, [[Activision]] approached by developer [[Neversoft]] to develop a skateboarding [[racing game]], in order to capitalize on the growing popularity of the sport. The idea of a racing game was abandoned in development after Neversoft showed the adaptability of the control engine to various maneuvers.<ref name="GameBrain Interview"/> Members of the team were fans of Sega's ''[[Top Skater]]'', which they played at a local arcade, and that served as a basic influence on the game's original concept, but ''Top Skater'' had a racing element, which the team moved away from as they began studying real-life skaters.<ref name="Retro Gamer">{{cite magazine |title=The Making of ''Tony Hawk's Pro Skater'' |magazine=[[Retro Gamer]] |issue=131 |year=2014 |pages=84–7 |url=https://archive.org/details/retro_gamer/RetroGamer_131/page/84/mode/2up}}</ref> To make the gameplay seem as real as possible, company founder Joel Jewett had a [[halfpipe]] built in his backyard and started skateboarding with his coworkers.<ref name="Neversoft Era">{{cite web|title=The studio that made Tony Hawk's Pro Skater closed, here's its billion-dollar story|url=http://www.polygon.com/2014/7/22/5926545/neversoft-tony-hawk-guitar-hero-close|website=Polygon|last=Lien|first=Tracey|date=July 22, 2014|access-date=May 21, 2016|archive-date=May 29, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160529041842/http://www.polygon.com/2014/7/22/5926545/neversoft-tony-hawk-guitar-hero-close|url-status=live}}</ref> Also, [[motion capture]] was used to make the skateboarding moves seem as realistic as possible.<ref name="Fielder"/> To distance the franchise from other games, the developers opted for licensing modern rock songs, in contrast to the classic music usual for video games at that time.<ref name="Neversoft Era"/> The first game was developed within a year by a 12-person team,<ref name="Neversoft Era"/> and Tony Hawk was added as the face of the franchise late in development.<ref name="Barton 2"/> A month before the release of ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (video game)|Tony Hawk's Pro Skater]]'' for [[PlayStation (console)|PlayStation]] in 1999, Hawk successfully performed a [[900 (skateboarding)|900]] at that year's [[X Games]], which resulted in huge press coverage of the sport and helped boost sales.<ref name="Neversoft Era"/> Also, the inclusion of the game on the ''[[Jampack]]'' [[game demo|demo]] for the PlayStation generated further hype, as players were overwhelmed by the unique gameplay.<ref name="GameBrain Interview"/> The huge success of the game prompted Neversoft to vastly expand its production staff in order to be able to release ''Tony Hawk's'' games on a yearly basis.<ref name="Neversoft Era"/> Neversoft held true to that ambition and released ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2|Pro Skater 2]]'' and ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3|Pro Skater 3]]'' in 2000 and 2001, respectively. Both games retained mostly the same gameplay as their predecessor, along with some improvements. The two games were the most critically acclaimed games for their respective consoles and still rank among the highest rated games of all time.<ref name="MC"/><ref name="GSpot"/><ref name="PS2"/> Furthermore, ''Pro Skater 3'' was the first [[PlayStation 2]] game to feature online gameplay. Also, ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2x]]'', a compilation of the first two games, was released as a launch title for the [[Xbox (console)|Xbox]] in 2001. 2002 saw the release of ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4|Pro Skater 4]]''; by this time, the franchise was among the best-selling video game franchises in the world.<ref>{{cite web|title=Tony Hawk Takes Off|url=http://www.cbsnews.com/news/tony-hawk-takes-off-10-12-2002/|publisher=CBS News|last=Kohn|first=David|date=December 10, 2002|access-date=May 22, 2016|archive-date=January 22, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170122143011/http://www.cbsnews.com/news/tony-hawk-takes-off-10-12-2002/|url-status=live}}</ref> This was reflected in the manpower Activision and Neversoft invested in the franchise, as the employees working on the game had grown from 12 for the first entry to 150<ref name="Neversoft Era"/> and there were significantly more skaters featured, all of which received considerable royalties.<ref name="The Andrew Reynolds Interview">{{cite web|author1=Ian Michna|title=The Andrew Reynolds Interview|url=http://www.jenkemmag.com/home/2014/09/02/the-andrew-reynolds-interview-2/|website=Jenkem|access-date=16 November 2014|date=2 September 2014|archive-date=September 5, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140905010738/http://www.jenkemmag.com/home/2014/09/02/the-andrew-reynolds-interview-2/|url-status=live}}</ref>

With the 2003 release of the fifth entry in the series, ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground|Underground]]'', the developers used storytelling and exploration to distance their product from the plotless, task-based format of the previous ''Tony Hawk's'' games, which led Neversoft president Joel Jewett to describe ''Underground'' as an adventure game.<ref name="handson">{{cite web|url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2003/10/07/tony-hawks-underground-hands-on|website=IGN|date=October 6, 2003|last=Perry|first=Douglass C.|title=Tony Hawk's Underground: Hands-On|access-date=June 4, 2014|archive-date=June 6, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140606215815/http://www.ign.com/articles/2003/10/07/tony-hawks-underground-hands-on|url-status=live}}</ref> It follows the player character and their treacherous friend, Eric Sparrow, on their quest to become professional skateboarders.

''[[Tony Hawk's Underground 2]]'', released a year after its predecessor, was the only direct sequel in the series. While it still featured a story mode, it took a stark departure from ''Underground'' and focused on a "World Destruction Tour" orchestrated by Tony Hawk and [[Bam Margera]]. As such, the game tried to capitalize on the immense popularity of ''[[Jackass (franchise)|Jackass]]'' and its related media by also focusing on destruction and self-deprecating pranks.<ref name="IGN Jackass">{{cite web|url=http://www.ign.com/articles/2004/10/07/tony-hawks-underground-2-6|first=Douglass C.|last=Perry|date=October 7, 2004|access-date=May 22, 2016|title=TONY HAWK'S UNDERGROUND 2|website=IGN|archive-date=April 8, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140408012448/http://www.ign.com/articles/2004/10/07/tony-hawks-underground-2-6|url-status=live}}</ref> One later review referred to the game being "more of a ''Jackass'' game than the [[Jackass: The Game|''Jackass'' game]]".<ref name="Jackass">{{cite web|url=http://stickskills.com/2014/04/15/tony-hawk-tuesdays-thug2/|first=Iain|last=Hunt|date=May 22, 2014|access-date=May 22, 2016|title=Jackasses in the Underground|publisher=Stickskills|archive-date=June 24, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160624192917/http://stickskills.com/2014/04/15/tony-hawk-tuesdays-thug2/|url-status=live}}</ref> This was reflected by the ''Jackass'' stars [[Jason "Wee-Man" Acuña]], [[Steve-O|Stephen "Steve-O" Glover]], Margera and his father [[Phil Margera|Phil]] featuring heavily in the game. Due to some fans being displeased with the absence of the goal-oriented approach of the ''Pro Skater'' era, a "Classic Mode" showcasing the old gameplay was included from this entry onwards.<ref name="IGN Jackass"/> The [[PlayStation Portable]] exclusive ''[[Tony Hawk's Underground 2: Remix]]'' contained different levels and a slightly different story and was released in the spring of 2005. Former developer Chris Rausch recalled that at the time of ''Underground'' and ''Underground 2'', the control scheme of the series had reached its limit and Activision instructed Neversoft to develop each new entry around one single new gimmick, such as a story mode or vehicle controls in the ''Underground'' subseries, or the [[open world]] of ''[[Tony Hawk's American Wasteland|American Wasteland]]''.<ref name="GameBrain Interview"/>

In 2005, ''American Wasteland'' was released on the PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Xbox 360 (as a launch title) and later on PC. The game's story mode is set in the city of [[Los Angeles]], where the player character is trying to renovate a run-down [[skatepark]]. While the game was advertised with featuring one huge comprehensive open world in story mode, the game's world was actually composed of several levels, resembling different [[List of districts and neighborhoods of Los Angeles|areas of Los Angeles]], which were connected through [[Loading screen|loading tunnels]] to make them appear consecutive.<ref>{{cite web|title=The History of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater: Ollies, Grabs, and Grinds|url=http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-2/tony-hawks-underground-2/659774p3.html|publisher=GameSpy|last=McGarvey|first=Sterling|date=October 19, 2005|access-date=December 21, 2016|archive-date=December 22, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161222092506/http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-2/tony-hawks-underground-2/659774p3.html|url-status=live}}</ref> Similar to ''Underground 2'', the game includes a classic mode separate from the story mode, which mostly recycles levels of the PSP-exclusive ''Underground 2: Remix'', released earlier that year. Furthermore, the game implemented [[BMX]] controls similar to the ''[[Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX]]'' games, which were also released by Activision. Also similar to its predecessor, the game was accompanied by ''[[Tony Hawk's American Sk8land|American Sk8land]]'', a [[Handheld game console|handheld]] game for [[Nintendo DS]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] consoles with slightly different story and levels.

The promise of an open world skateboarding game was fulfilled with the next entry in the series, ''[[Tony Hawk's Project 8|Project 8]]'', released in late 2006. While the PS2 and Xbox versions did not feature said open world, the [[seventh generation of video game consoles]], such as the [[PlayStation 3]] and [[Xbox 360]] could support larger content. Once again, the game's story centered on the player character aspiring to become a professional skateboarder, this time by advancing through a rank system to become a part of Tony Hawk's new fictional skateboarding team, the namegiving "Project 8". Unlike in previous entries, the classic mode was embedded in the different areas of the open world. The game did not appear on Nintendo's then-new [[Wii]] console, which instead saw the release of the then-exclusive [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] game ''[[Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam|Downhill Jam]]'', a [[Skateboarding styles#Downhill skateboarding|downhill racing]] game featuring a mostly fictitious cast. The game was also released on PS2 half a year later.

The next game in the main series, 2007's ''[[Tony Hawk's Proving Ground|Proving Ground]]'' featured a largely similar concept to ''Project 8'', with an open world and the player able to choose three career paths as a skater. [[Baltimore]], [[Philadelphia]], and [[Washington, D.C.]], were established as the three open world areas, with each containing three skateable areas, which also featured an integrated classic mode. The game was the first and only entry of the series to compete with rival skateboarding series ''[[Skate (2007 video game)|Skate]]'', which also featured an open world but with more advanced controls and a less arcade-style approach. ''Skate'' outsold ''Proving Ground'' on a 2:1 ratio, resembling its lackluster reception.<ref name="auto2">{{cite web |title=Skate outsells Tony Hawk 'nearly' 2 to 1 |url=http://www.joystiq.com/2008/02/01/skate-outsells-tony-hawk-nearly-2-to-1/ |last=Miller |first=Ross |publisher=Joystiq |date=January 2, 2008 |access-date=December 21, 2016 |archive-date=January 28, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150128173757/http://www.joystiq.com/2008/02/01/skate-outsells-tony-hawk-nearly-2-to-1/ |url-status=live}}</ref> With the franchise suffering from product fatigue and appearing to be past its prime, Activision decided to dedicate most of Neversoft's laborforce to the ''[[Guitar Hero]]'' and ''[[Call of Duty]]'' franchises.<ref>{{cite web|last=McWhertor|first=Michael|title=Activision Takes Axe To Guitar Hero's Neversoft, Shuts Down Luxoflux|date=February 11, 2010|url=http://kotaku.com/5469858/activision-takes-axe-to-guitar-heros-neversoft-shuts-down-luxoflux|publisher=Kotaku|access-date=December 21, 2016|archive-date=August 24, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160824032538/http://kotaku.com/5469858/activision-takes-axe-to-guitar-heros-neversoft-shuts-down-luxoflux|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="Neversoft Infinity Ward">{{cite web|last=Klepek|first=Patrick|title=Infinity Ward, Neversoft Merging into Single Super Studio|date=May 3, 2014 |url=http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/infinity-ward-neversoft-merging-into-single-super-studio/1100-4909/|publisher=Giant Bomb|access-date=December 21, 2016|archive-date=December 15, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201215000053/https://www.giantbomb.com/articles/infinity-ward-neversoft-merging-into-single-super-studio/1100-4909/|url-status=live}}</ref> This development would more and more marginalize Neversoft, which was defunct and completely merged with [[Infinity Ward]] by 2014.<ref name="Neversoft Infinity Ward"/><ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-07-11-tony-hawk-studio-neversoft-bids-farewell-burns-eyeball-effigy | title = Tony Hawk studio Neversoft bids farewell, burns eyeball effigy | first = Tom | last = Phillips | date = July 10, 2014 | access-date = July 11, 2014 | website = [[Eurogamer]] | archive-date = July 13, 2014 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140713203848/http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2014-07-11-tony-hawk-studio-neversoft-bids-farewell-burns-eyeball-effigy | url-status = live}}</ref> The control of the ''Tony Hawk's'' franchise had passed on to [[Chicago]] studio [[Robomodo]] by 2008.

Because all games in the series released since ''American Wasteland'' failed to achieve commercial success, Activision decided to put the franchise on hold. When Robomodo was tasked with developing a new game, it was decided to return to the franchise's roots and develop a port of the original ''Pro Skater'' series. ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD]]'' was released in the summer of 2012 via [[download]] only and featured a collection of popular levels from ''Pro Skater 1-3''. Critical reception towards the game was mixed, as while critics felt that it captured the appeal of the original games, the content was described as sparse, while the game was said to not deliver updated gameplay mechanics and feel dated.<ref name="dtoid review">{{cite web |url=http://www.destructoid.com/review-tony-hawk-s-pro-skater-hd-231559.phtml |website=[[Destructoid]] |access-date=July 23, 2012 |date=July 18, 2012 |title=Review: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD |first=Allistair |last=Pinsof |archive-date=July 22, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120722000008/http://www.destructoid.com/review-tony-hawk-s-pro-skater-hd-231559.phtml |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.giantbomb.com/tony-hawks-pro-skater-hd/61-37026/reviews/ | title = Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD Review | first = Jeff | last = Gerstmann | date = July 18, 2012 | access-date = July 18, 2012 | publisher = [[Giant Bomb]] | archive-date = July 19, 2012 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120719202320/http://www.giantbomb.com/tony-hawks-pro-skater-hd/61-37026/reviews/ | url-status = live}}</ref> In 2014, the endless runner ''[[Tony Hawk's Shred Session|Shred Session]]'' [[soft launch]]ed for [[mobile device]]s in a handful of territories but was later pulled from the market, postponed indefinitely and later shelved.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Hodapp|first1=Eli|title='Tony Hawk's Shred Session' Postponed Indefinitely, New Console and Mobile 'Tony Hawk' Game Coming in 2015|date=November 7, 2014 |url=http://toucharcade.com/2014/11/07/new-tony-hawk-game-coming-2015/|publisher=TouchArcade.com|access-date=7 November 2014|archive-date=January 29, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150129212603/http://toucharcade.com/2014/11/07/new-tony-hawk-game-coming-2015/|url-status=live}}</ref>

After having only produced spin-offs and ports since inheriting the franchise in 2008, Activision announced in mid-2015 a traditional entry in the series developed by Robomodo for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, [[PlayStation 4]], and [[Xbox One]]. To point out its return to the series' roots and heyday, it was named ''[[Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5]]''.
