The game launched this past February yet despite being available to PS Plus members for the first few months, failed to make much of a splash. One source told the publication the game would utilize a free-to-play model, in part because the studio's most recent project - Destruction All-Stars - made the switch from a premium game to a PlayStation Plus title in the 11th hour. Sources familiar with the matter told Video Games Chronicle (VGC) that PlayStation has handed over the Twisted Metal series to Lucid Games, adding that the Liverpool-based studio has already started working on the franchise's revival.
The games in the series usually contain a healthy dose of black humor.In brief: A live-action Twisted Metal series apparently isn't the only thing Sony has in mind for the long-running vehicular combat franchise. However, there is a general "be careful what you wish for" theme in the game series, as nearly all of the winning contestants end up with "not-so-happy" endings,ĭue to the skill and proclivity of the hosts for twisting the words of their wish around often to deadly effect. The hosts of these games are the persons who are, through arcane means, capable of warping reality itself to grant the wish of the contest winner The winner is brought before the tournament host, who will grant the contestant a single wish.
The general goal is to destroy all opponents apart from the other contestants, unique vehicles seemingly designed by the host themselves may stand in the competitors' path. In almost all of the games, the host is a man called "Calypso" however, in the series' fourth installment, perennial contestant Sweet Tooth briefly takes over. Although each individual game features its own storyline, they all revolve around the eponymous "Twisted Metal": a vehicular combat tournament hosted once a year.
