Danny Trejo will be a guest character in OlliOlli World
Cult actor Danny Trejo will appear in OlliOlli World, it’s been confirmed.
The 77-year-old actor, who has more than 250 film credits to his name including Machete, From Dusk Till Dawn and Grindhouse, will appear as an NPC in the colourful skateboarding game.

Trejo also recently appeared in free DLC for Far Cry 6, which contains two missions starring Trejo as himself rather than a character.

When this mission is completed a new Special Operation (the game’s sixth and final one) is unlocked, in which Trejo helps students protesting Castillo’s military.
OlliOlli World is the sequel to UK developer Roll7’s 2014 skateboarding game OlliOlli and its 2015 sequel OlliOlli 2. The game is due for release on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch and PC on February 8.
