Twisted Metal: Simpsons Special Edition



Twisted Metal: Simpsons Special Edition (Abbreviated TM:SSE) is a future vehicular combat/racing video game in the Twisted Metal franchise. The first crossover in the series, it features characters from the hit FOX tv show The Simpsons as tournament participants. The game will be available for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 & Microsoft Windows; It will be the first TM game in 25 years (Twisted Metal II in 1996) to be available for Windows.

Story Premise
A small wormhole opens up in Mr. Burns' backyard, spitting out a unique red ring before closing. He and Smithers are the only witnesses to this discovery. After eventually putting on the ring with Smithers' help, Burns is seemingly able to grant wishes at will.

The next day, Kent Brockman announces to the town of Springfield of a competition hosted by Burns, where the winner will be granted any one wish they so desire. Let the games begin...again!

Gameplay
Twisted Metal: Simpsons Special Edition is a Twisted Metal game at heart with all the humor of The Simpsons. Like all the games that came before it, the overall theme remains the same. Contestants (in this case, Simpsons characters) compete in the titular Twisted Metal Tournament where the last one standing will get any wish they desire granted.

Core gameplay is mainly based on every game in the TM series, pre-2012 reboot. Players select one Simpsons character to progress through the Tournament and outfit their vehicle with non-special attack weapons (a slight departure from the rest of the series in this regard). The Tournament is the main career mode for the game and is made up of several stages that take place through the entirety of Springfield. Players will also encounter boss characters in select stages.
