Love it or loathe it, Twisted Metal is one of Sony’s oldest first-party franchises. It’s also the platform holder’s earliest hit: while the series didn’t catch on quite the same in Europe, it spawned multiple sequels during the PS1 era, and would go on to receive various entries across PS2, PSP, and even most recently PS3.
While there’s speculation of a new game in development, this month will see the series thrust back into the limelight with the release of Peacock’s live action TV show adaptation. That’ll air starting 27th July, and in order to get you in the mood, Twisted Metal and Twisted Metal 2 will both be releasing as emulated classics on PS Plus Premium starting next week.
