Explained: Teaser for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater in Black Ops 6

There’s a lot of chatter surrounding Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 lately, thanks to the release of its Season Two Reloaded on February 20. These mid-season updates are an exceptional way to rekindle excitement in the franchise’s ongoing post-launch content. With Season Two Reloaded, players are diving into a fresh lineup of additions across the game’s multiplayer, Zombies mode, and Call of Duty: Warzone.

One of the hottest topics is the arrival of new multiplayer maps in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, introduced as part of the Season Two Reloaded. This update includes two fresh maps and a noteworthy crossover event with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. However, as players explore these new additions, many have stumbled upon a peculiar teaser in one of the maps, hinting at the future of the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series.

Enthusiasts have been eagerly anticipating the Season Two Reloaded update, primarily due to the return of the beloved Grind map, initially seen in 2012’s Black Ops 2. Now reimagined and included in Black Ops 6 as Grind Ooze, this skate park map has been given a fresh look, making it a standout part of Season Two Reloaded’s multiplayer experience.

Moreover, Grind was also featured as a multiplayer map in 2018’s Black Ops 4, making it a growing favorite in the Black Ops sub-series with this being its third appearance. But there’s a twist: one room in the Grind map now displays an intriguing date, March 4, 2025, alongside a minimalistic logo for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. This has sparked a wave of theories and discussions among fans. Rumors are circulating, suggesting either a remake of the third and fourth Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater games or perhaps a brand-new entry in the franchise.

Adding weight to the speculation, Tony Hawk has confirmed via social media that this easter egg is indeed referencing an upcoming gaming project. Fans will have to wait until March 4 for the full reveal. Given Activision’s ownership of both Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater and Call of Duty, this clever teaser in Season Two Reloaded is a brilliant strategy to draw attention across its popular franchises.

The anticipation among fans for updates on the Pro Skater series is palpable. This strategic use of Call of Duty to tease the Tony Hawk series has created a buzz that couldn’t have been achieved with a traditional announcement. Both franchises are reaping the benefits of this cross-promotional approach, building excitement among their respective communities.
