After the smoke and dust of the latest trailer for the new installment of Twisted Metal settled, a release date was revealed: October 4. Appearing exclusively during this week's episode of GameTrailers TV, the newest video for the PS3-exclusive features the expected level of vehicle carnage from the longstanding series.

Developer Eat Sleep Play--formed in 2007--is behind the upcoming project, with co-founders and original Twisted Metal creators Scott Campbell and David Jaffe at the studio's helm.

It has been a few years since we've been able to reign supreme against our friends with the maniacal Sweet Tooth, so we're looking forward to getting a chance to jump back behind the wheel of Twisted Metal's world. Even if it means we'll quickly explode into a million horrific pieces every thirty seconds while playing online.
