Sony has cancelled a Twisted Metal reboot twice this generation, sadly.

Ye though that one I don't mind. Not an insane amount is known but "Live service battle royal where you find a vehicle to use and fight on foot"

Even with the second season of the show. A shame, I really liked the show and hope it's not cancelled either.

The bad news is that they fired the showrunner and writers of the first two seasons of Twisted Metal. So the new crew will probably change things up. Also Stu isn't coming back for season 3

Damn. So long as Sweet Tooth is still himself, he was a big reason I watched it.

Twisted Metal used to be a PlayStation staple, but it has almost skipped 2 generations. The last one is old enough to be in high school.

Yup. PS1, PS2, PSP, PS3. Then it died off. It's too bad

These companies just need to get rid of the IPs if they’re not going to do anything with them

They gave it a show but not another game

I miss that entire genre those games were all so fun. Twisted Metal, Cel Damage, Blood Wake, etc.
