Twisted Metal (Peacock) Gets the Engines Roaring Again

If you love gonzo car combat and a wicked sense of humor, Peacock’s Twisted Metal delivers like a souped‑up ice cream truck on nitrous. We watched Season 1 earlier this year—it was a fun watch front to back, with bite‑size episodes, crunchy practical stunts, and a tone that swings from outrageous to oddly heartfelt.

Now we’re starting Season 2, and we’re looking forward to the bigger stakes, nastier machines, and that chaotic clown energy that keeps social feeds buzzing. Anthony Mackie and Stephanie Beatriz are back behind the wheel, and the Sweet Tooth tag‑team of Joe Seanoa (in the suit) and Will Arnett (that voice!) remains an absolute menace. (@peacocktv)

Why it slaps (quick hits)

  • 30–35 minute episodes that rocket by—perfect weeknight binge fuel.

  • Stunts & metal‑on‑metal mayhem that look and sound heavy.

  • Game DNA intact without getting bogged down in lore—just enough nods for longtime fans.

  • Cast chemistry that sells both the jokes and the jolts. (@peacocktv)

Season 2: rolling release done right

Season 2 premiered July 31, 2025, and Peacock dropped new episodes each Thursday through August 28—a cadence that kept the hype wheels spinning without a long drought between hits.

Where to watch

Both seasons stream exclusively on Peacock in the U.S. Here are the direct jump‑offs:

 

A quick throwback from Game Team Rule Mobile

One of our favorite entries in the PlayStation saga is Twisted Metal: Head‑On. Portable mayhem on the PSP (and later PS2) with arenas that begged for repeat runs—it nailed that pick‑up‑and‑cause‑havoc vibe we still chase in modern racers and vehicular brawlers.

 

Final lap

If Season 1 was a joyful wreckfest, Season 2 looks like the tournament arc fans have been waiting for—bigger set pieces, sharper one‑liners, and enough scrap metal to keep the junkyard humming. We’re buckled in. See you on the interstate.
