Destruction AllStars will be one of the free PlayStation Plus titles for the month of February 2021, so it's about time we started to get a good look at this part racer part something else. Honestly, we still can't really tell what it is you do after losing access to a vehicle. At least a new trailer is here to introduce us to the cast of characters on offer, all of which we assume come with their own set of skills and abilities.
There are 16 competitors in total, one of which is Ultimo Barricodo. He's the dude you've been seeing a lot in pre-release media, but then there's also Boxtop. Suitably, they wear a cardboard box on their head. Harmony drives something that looks like a Range Rover and Jian does the Naruto run outside of a car. Because of course he does. Genesis looks pretty cool at least. Expect more info and trailers to follow in the coming days.

Looks fun! Would've been nice to have a few more characters to choose from or to be able to create your own though.
They also all seem a little similar to me and trying to be to much like Fortnite (which is what puts me off this game slightly).
Part Onrush Part Rocket league?
Bleeding Edge 2.0
So...what do you do?
This would be D.O.A. if it wasn’t going to PS Plus. Even then, I don’t expect it to do that well considering nobody can even get a PS5 to fill the servers.
Looks a little like Fortnite art style, hope you can make your own characters but I do like the inclusion of a disabled character and the representation on display.
I like this game’s art style and the combat looks fun but I really just want a short state of play where the developer just tells me about the game, because tbh these trailers for the game aren’t exactly communicating to me personally
Am I making sense here? Maybe it’s just me
Hmm still not sure I'm going to enjoy this, might be ok for a few games, my expectations are low. But can't complain for free hopefully I will be proven wrong.
@GingerSilent I concur. I get the base idea of Destruction AllStars, but it desperately needs a dedicated State of Play. Sony doesn't seem to have a lot of confidence in it, and it being a PS Plus game for two months doesn't guarantee sustainability and player retention.
@nessisonett I hope you are wrong looks like great fun.
We need to see this game in action now. Looks promising, we just need some proper gameplay!
@RBMango which is a shame because I do believe if marketed right, this game could see the kind of success that we would see from a new twisted metal game
Speaking of which, anyone else want a new twisted metal? Maybe one with an online multiplayer focus? But not forgetting couch multiplayer obviously
We can call it ps plus game.
.
They should do more of AA games launching day 1 on ps plus
To rival xbox gamepass
Sony really gotta step up their promo game. Just dropping snippets of an upcoming game is horrible.
That game looks mad fun but it needs a dedicated State of Play with devs commentary over it. Why even bother creating new IPs, if you don't show confidence in em by promoting em in big fashion.
I think there's still time for a State of Play for it though.
Providing a brand new game as PS Plus lineup is extraordinary compared to the usual offerings.
Give that game some promo.
There had better be a generic white bald man to play as.
I guess I look most like that Boxtop guy, actually.
It will be cool if sony make another twisted metal game with single and multiplayer..
@Classic_console game pass already has a worthy rival in PSNow. I subscribe and for the £35 I paid for a year its been excellent value.
@GingerSilent I don't know why they didn't just make a new Twisted Metal or Wipeout. I get that Sony and Lucid might have wanted to make a new IP to stretch their legs a bit, but after seeing the end result and just the general meh reception from a lot of people, I think returning to those franchises would have been a smarter move.
Glad I'll get it for free
@Salohcin hahahahahahha. Idk. Crash other people with the same powerup?
Really don’t care about these 2 dimensional characters. Just show us a couple of full games so we can see what it’s like. Ideally without all that obnoxious talking.
@RBMango didn’t the Wipeout Devs shut down a few years ago? Honestly at this point the PS5’s big multiplayer game will probably be that standalone TLOU2 Factions Multiplayer
@LiterallyDoNotCare I wouldn't pay £70 for it that's for sure.
@GingerSilent fine by me. I hope Sony keep rolling out the hits with single player games.
Looks horrendous.
Any reason to make character looks like ugly prototypes rejected from fornite?
@Hyperluminal like the big daddy above said. Still don't know how you play it. Need to see a full match at least. Game comes in a month for god's sake. They've shown more Returnal which is a month after that. Returnal also needa an uncut gameplay video.
@GingerSilent They did, but Lucid is made up of a bunch of Wipeout alumni.
ME: WTF IS THIS GAME?
SONY: LOOK!
ME: WHAT?
SONY: IT LOOKS GOOD, DON'T IT?
ME:WHAT?
SONY: https://www.store.playstation.com/en-us/games/destruction-allstars/
@LiterallyDoNotCare I'm not bothered either way. The game is coming to me whether I like it or not so I'm in no rush to find out what its about 😊
I'm gonna use the thicc Nia Jax looking character.
@RBMango huh, didnt know that
Only showing a few characters makes me think the others (or a good portion of them) will be locked behind a paywall...
@batwing47 unless you pay $70.
Ha!
How am I now less excited about this game than I was before I watched that promo?
Why is everyone so desperate to see the game in action? It's coming to ps+ so it's not like you need to make any decisions about buying it. I'm happy to just wait for it to come out and give it a go. It doesn't seem like my kind of game though, I'm terrible at competitive online have games.
Just glad I get to try it out and probably move on without having to pay anything extra for it.
Looking forward to trying this out since my PS5 arrived today!!! I’m bout to fire up Astrobot and check out the Dualsense for the first time.
@DeepSpace5D congrats. Have fun
I'm looking forward to trying this out since it'll be free... but my initial impression of it as a new Rocket League with better graphics is tempered by how boring all that running around and not being in the cars looks : /
@Wormold Probably the same way as any multiplayer game nowadays, a seasonal structure with paid battle passes.
Looking forward to playing this, I was one of the weirdos that had it preordered. Haha.
This is exactly the kind of trailer that puts me off this game. Not what I want to see.
I was laughing when that one character started Naruto running XD.
