Bam Margera's inclusion in the upcoming Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 has been confirmed, despite his absence from the initial roster announcement. This news was shared by skateboarding media veteran Roger Bagley during a members-only livestream on The Nine Club skateboarding podcast, as reported by Video Games Chronicle.
According to Bagley, Tony Hawk reached out to Activision to request Margera's addition to the game, even though it was already complete. Despite being initially told it was not possible, Hawk's persistence paid off, and Margera will now be featured in the final version of the game. IGN has reached out to Activision for further comment on this development.
Margera, known for his roles in the Jackass series and as a former professional skateboarder, has faced significant public challenges with alcohol and substance abuse, including multiple rehab visits. He was also dismissed from the film Jackass Forever and was subject to a restraining order from director Jeff Tremaine due to alleged threats.
Recent videos of Hawk and Margera skateboarding together had sparked speculation about Margera's potential return to the game. Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4, announced earlier this month, is set to launch on July 11, 2025, across multiple platforms including PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. The game is being developed by Iron Galaxy and has overcome significant hurdles, including the merger of the original developer, Vicarious Visions, with Blizzard, which had initially led to the project's cancellation.
