There’s quite the chatter in the gaming community about Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, especially after the Season Two Reloaded event launched on February 20. These mid-season updates are fantastic at rekindling excitement among players, offering a slew of new additions to the franchise’s multiplayer and Zombies modes, as well as tweaks for Call of Duty: Warzone.
Players have turned their focus towards the new multiplayer maps introduced with Season Two Reloaded, which feature a unique crossover event with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) franchise. As gamers dive into these fresh maps, a peculiar teaser has caught their attention—it seems to hint at future developments in the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series.
The anticipation leading up to Season Two Reloaded was palpable, largely because it reintroduces the beloved Grind map, originally seen in 2012’s Black Ops 2. Now revamped for Black Ops 6 as Grind Ooze, this map still boasts its iconic skate park setting with a fresh look, making it a crucial part of the Season Two Reloaded multiplayer experience.
In its prior appearances, such as in 2018’s Black Ops 4, Grind has become a significant fixture in the Black Ops sub-franchise. However, there’s something new—a mysterious date, March 4, 2025, painted on one of the map’s walls alongside a minimalistic Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater logo. This little detail has sparked a flurry of discussions and theories among fans, who have been buzzing with rumors of a Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater revival.
Whispers in the gaming world hint at a remake of the third and fourth installments of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, especially after the successful reboot of the first two games in 2020. Building on this past success with another remake seems plausible, though some fans speculate we might be looking forward to an entirely new entry in the beloved skateboarding series.
To clear up any confusion, Tony Hawk himself confirmed via social media that the Grind map in Black Ops 6 does indeed reference an upcoming project, with details supposedly set to be unveiled on March 4. This clever tie-in uses Call of Duty’s immense popularity to shine a spotlight on another one of Activision’s franchises, crafting a unique promotional strategy within Season Two Reloaded.
The buzz this crossover has generated speaks volumes about the enduring appeal of the Pro Skater series. As fans eagerly await more news about the project, it’s clear that leveraging Call of Duty as a marketing tool may have attracted more attention than a conventional announcement ever could.
