Speculation about another Twisted Metal is being questioned by Jaffe Vortex himself
One of the weekend’s topics was the shot of insider Tom Henderson, who, after information about Call of Duty or Battlefield, headed in a completely different direction. He shared a picture from the Twisted Metal event on his Twitter event, and the only thing he wrote about it was the year 2023. Given how accurate Henderson’s information was about the titles in the past, a confusion. Many discussants moderated expectations, with Henderson no doubt talking about the upcoming series, but the insider later reiterated that he tweeted about the games, so the debate could go on cheerfully. But before the players found outWhat exactly Tome Henderson meant, let alone who is working on the game, or whether it will be a sequel, or a remake or remaster, the author of the original game, David Jaffe, entered the debate and questioned the speculation.
Due to the fact that David Jaffe no longer cooperates with Sony and goes beyond the work of youtuber beyond his career in the Polish studio Movie Games Lunarium, he has no supply of internal information. And if he had, as he states in his short video, he probably wouldn’t be able to talk about them anyway. Nevertheless, it offers players a slightly closer look at the whole thing from its position as the author of the original game, and although it does not completely refute speculation, it does not share the general enthusiasm and belief that the series will return in style. “If I knew about something Sony hadn’t told people yet, of course I couldn’t talk about it. But I would be hurt if they worked on it and didn’t tell me about it, “says Jaffe. But he explains that it would be a purely emotional level, because Twisted Metal is even closer to its heart than another of its actions – God of War. So that doesn’t mean it necessarily he wanted to work on a new game, or that he would not realize who owns the brand and that he can do whatever he wants with it. In this respect, Jaffe is very fair and accommodating, which is confirmed by the statement that he also did not know about the new God of War, directed by Cory Barlog, and yet the game turned out great.
In addition, Jeffe still remains relevant to Sony with regard to Twisted Metal, as it was supposed to call him several times over the producers of the upcoming series for a consultation, so even that ultimately contributes to the designer’s belief that if behind the scenes something works, then maybe it won’t be anything big. David Jeffe thinks out loud that it could be a minor issue with the series, because otherwise he didn’t get any clues from his unnamed friends and own resources. “Sure, it can still be a big game I just don’t know about, but I’d be surprised,” Jeff concluded.
It is worth noting, however, that Twisted Metal was created in 1995 for the PlayStation and PC. A year later, it was followed by the second installment, and despite a series of direct sequels and spin-offs, ended its journey on PlayStation 3 in 2012. The simply named Twisted Metal received an above-average rating and criticism only targeted a weaker story or fewer characters compared to previous ones. parts. However, arcade games of this style are not set on roses, and in the following years, Sony’s view apparently did not create enough space for the series to be able to create a sequel. Jaffe himself talks about the idea he would have for a possible next part, but he also doubted in the quoted video that there would probably be no such interest in the chosen concept nowadays.
