Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 Pulled From Game Pass July Calendar, Leaving Subscribers to Speculate

Microsoft has quietly removed Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 from the Xbox Game Pass lineup for July 2026, just weeks after listing it for a July 21 release. The move, reported by multiple outlets, came with no official explanation from the company, leaving subscribers and industry watchers to guess at the reason behind the sudden reversal. IGN confirmed that the title was originally set to hit Game Pass Ultimate, Game Pass Premium, and PC Game Pass before being pulled without comment.

Pure Xbox, which had included the game in its recent July Game Pass roundup, noted that the listing simply vanished. “Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1+2 was set to join its sequel on the subscription service on July 21,” the outlet reported, “however, that no longer appears to be the case.” The unexplained removal has sparked online discussion, with many pointing to potential licensing issues for the Activision title, though no evidence has surfaced.

Gameloop.gg echoed the lack of clarity, writing that the delisting is “leaving subscribers watching for licensing or scheduling answers.” The silence from Xbox is especially puzzling given that the remastered collection had been promoted as part of the wave 1 lineup. Gamer Social Club described the development as “a strange turn of events,” noting that the game was pulled from the July wave 1 schedule.

CNET provided a possible backdrop, reporting that the Game Pass announcement came after Xbox announced thousands of layoffs at the company, though the outlet did not directly link the two events. The timing raises questions about whether internal restructuring or shifting priorities played a role, but Microsoft has offered no clarification. For now, subscribers can only wait and watch the July Game Pass calendar, where Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 remains conspicuously absent.
