Peacock and Sony Pictures Television have unveiled the first trailer for Twisted Metal Season 2, which will premiere sometime in summer 2025.

The trailer also teases that a fan-favourite character from the games, Calypso, will finally make his debut in the second season. In the games, Calypso is the creator of the Twisted Metal contest. He grants any wish the contest winner desires, no matter what they desire, wishes that are otherwise physically impossible are within his power.

The stakes couldn’t be higher as John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) risk their lives to compete in a dangerous demolition derby tournament. The prize? A single wish, their greatest heart’s desire, granted. The only problem is sixteen other drivers have wishes of their own. Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz lead a stellar cast, including Will Arnett & Joe Seanoa (aka Samoa Joe) as fan favorite Sweet Tooth, and Anthony Carrigan as the iconic tournament host Calypso, in a fast-paced, hysterical, thrilling season with unforgettable characters. It’s too bad not all of them will survive.

Following the revelations in the season one finale, John and Quiet find themselves entering the deadly TWISTED METAL tournament, a sinister demolition derby hosted by a mysterious man known as Calypso. As they try to survive an onslaught of dangerous new foes and familiar faces alike, including the murderous clown Sweet Tooth, things get complicated for John when he reunites with his long-lost sister, the vigilante Dollface.

The first season of the Twisted Metal TV series premiered back in 2023. However, it wasn’t very good (check out our full review here) so it was surprising when the adaptation received a Season 2 renewal during The Game Awards 2023.
