Twisted Metal Reboot on the Horizon

The long-awaited Twisted Metal reboot may finally become a reality as new evidence continues to surface. The vehicular combat video game series, created by David Jaffe in 1995, has been dormant for several years now, with the last game released back in 2012. Fans of the franchise have been eagerly awaiting the return of the classic game, and it looks like their wait may soon be over. As the rumors continue to swirl, more evidence of a Twisted Metal reboot is starting to appear. Last month, developer Sony Interactive Entertainment filed a trademark application with the European Union Intellectual Property Office for the series. Additionally, a listing for a “Twisted Metal” game was recently spotted on the PlayStation Store, though there are no details about what the game might be. While there has been no official announcement from Sony yet, the evidence is mounting. Previous reports suggest that the new game will be an open-world experience, similar to the Grand Theft Auto series, with players being able to drive around and explore different areas. It is also speculated that the game will feature online multiplayer, with up to 16 players being able to participate in chaotic car combat. The game is also said to feature new characters, vehicles, and weapons, as well as a story mode. If the game is indeed in the works, fans of the franchise can expect to see some new and exciting features when it is finally released. All the evidence points to a Twisted Metal reboot being in the works, though there is still no official word from Sony. Fans of the franchise are eagerly awaiting the announcement of the new game, and it looks like it may be coming sooner rather than later. Until then, all we can do is wait and see what the developers have in store for us.
