Comedy · Survival

Twisted Metal's chaotic car combat is all about weaponized mayhem, where outlandish vehicles tear through destructible arenas, leaving a trail of explosions and twisted metal. The thrill comes from mastering the physics of each vehicle while juggling offensive and defensive options, like the devastating Ricochet attack or the strategic use of mines. The series endures due to its blend of accessible gameplay and over-the-top personality, with each new entry attempting to up the ante on vehicular carnage.

About Twisted Metal

Details
The game focuses heavily on multiplayer combat, including various online game modes with up to 4 player split-screen and 16-players online. For example, the Nuke Mode is a new online game mode where you choose a faction to play against an opposing faction. In this mode, each faction has a giant metal statue that is being held in the air by a helicopter, which the opposing team must try to destroy. In order to destroy these statues, the player must abduct the enemy team's leader, then sacrifice the leader to a missile launcher that will, in turn, launch a nuclear missile. The person who sacrifices the leader and launches the missile has to control it to hit the opposing teams statue in the air. In order to win the opposing team has to repeat the process 3 times before the statue is destroyed for a team to win. There are four factions: the Clowns, the Dolls, the Skulls, and the Holy Men. The former having been announced as being inspired by Sweet Tooth and Dollface respectively. The latter are led by Mr. Grimm and the Preacher respectively.
