During a Comic-Con interview with Gamespot, Twisted Metal series creator David Jaffe confirmed that Twisted Metal “doesn’t” need an open Multiplayer beta.

We are planning a private and semi-private beta. A game like Twisted Metal doesn’t require that large of a testing phase and a private beta will give us better, more focused results.

When asked about the possibility of a Twisted Metal Collector’s Edition and the ESRB Ratings, Jaffe denied knowledge of a collector’s edition, but he confirmed the game’s ESRB M-rating.

Twisted Metal is set for October 4th 2011 only on PS3.
