Officially releasing on July 11, 2025, nearly five years after the release date of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2, the next pair of remastered games in the series will bring back the skateboarding action players first experienced in the series in 2001 and 2002. Dedicated fans have been eagerly awaiting the release of this remastered bundle, and their wait is nearly over.

That wait will probably be a little easier for some players who preordered the game, as a reveal at the Xbox Games Showcase 2025 on June 8 announced that they could dive into the playable demo. A blog post on the game's official website announces that The Foundry Demo is already live, including some great Tony Hawk's Pro Skater levels in The Foundry and College Parks skate parks. Multiple skaters are playable in the demo, as Hawk himself is joined by new Brazilian roster addition Rayssa Leal, who comes with a street style and a goofy stance, and the Doom Slayer of Doom franchise fame. Additionally, demo players will be able to enjoy a portion of the full game's curated soundtrack before its release.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 Has a Demo Now, But Only for Some Players

However, not all fans who preordered the game have access. While the upcoming Tony Hawk game will be available on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, there has been no mention of The Foundry Demo being available for either of those consoles in the official blog post or the announcement made during the Xbox Games Showcase.

The announcement of the demo came alongside the game's official launch trailer, which shows off a few surprises. The biggest of these reveals is that Bam Margera has been added to the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 roster after a wild back-and-forth news cycle that saw Hawk reportedly demanding Margera's addition very late into the game's development. The former Jackass star isn't the only one who makes a special appearance in the trailer, as Michelangelo of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles gets some early screen time, and Doom Slayer's cohort, The Revenant, shows off his meme-worthy Doot-Doot skills in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment.
