Popular Jackass star Bam Margera is making a comeback in the upcoming release for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, it has been confirmed.
To say that Bam Margera has been through hell would be an understatement. His addiction to drugs and alcohol has been well publicised, and he has even spent time behind bars as well as being checked in and out of rehab.
Bam Margera was to return in 2022’s Jackass Forever, but his constant battle with demons led the star to being fired from the project with growing concerns for his health from friends on the cast, including frontmen, Steve-0 and Johnny Knoxville.

Bam Margera had previously been a playable character in older Tony Hawk’s games. However, the controversy surrounding the star had cast some doubt as to whether he’d feature in the upcoming remake.
In a behind-the-scenes video, the ex-pro skater spoke of how he’s been obsessed with the Tony Hawk’s series since the second game, originally released in 2000 and spoke about the process of being body-scanned in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4.
In our preview of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3 + 4, we said: “Iron Galaxy could have just remastered the games as we remembered them and called it a day.”
“Smoother performance, better graphics, a new roster of skaters and an up-to-date and more expansive soundtrack is kind of everything you could want from a remaster, right? But the team didn’t stop there; they opted to create a few brand-new levels of their own.”
