Twisted Metal to make shock PS5 revival alongside TV show Sony InteractiveSony\u2019s long-dormant vehicular combat series, Twisted Metal, could be set for a revival according to prominent journalist Jeff Grubb. PlayStation\u2019s showcase last night was full of new games, including the likes of Spider-Man 2, Wolverine, Gran Turismo 7 and God of War Ragnarok, but it appears that the publisher has yet more to reveal at a later date. Speaking on his Grubbsnax video show, longtime industry insider and journalist Jeff Grubb said that sources had told him that a Twisted Metal game is in early development, and is intended to arrive at a similar time to the previously announced TV show. \u201cI think Twisted Metal is in the works but it may still be a ways off, so I think we\u2019re early,\u201d Grubb explained. \u201cThat speaks to a larger strategy shift from Sony \u2013 well, it\u2019s not even a shift, it\u2019s a \u2018broadening\u2019 of their strategy. VGC also corroborated Grubb\u2019s reporting, suggesting we could be reintroduced to Sweet Tooth and co. in the near future. Twisted Metal franchise revival planned Grubb also noted that David Jaffe, a key part of the franchise\u2019s development, is seemingly not involved in the project. \u201cIt does seem like it\u2019s in the works, it does seem that it\u2019s coming, and it does seem like it does not involve David Jaffe,\u201d Grubb said.

According to Variety, the movie is being written by Deadpool and Zombieland writer duo Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick.
