Minion's Stadium is the fourth level in Twisted Metal: Black. Located in a unknown area in Midtown similar to the stadium in the level Freeway, it is a small-sized arena, and the player has to defeat Minion, the winner of the previous year's contest, in order to advance. Upon completing the level, the player is taken to Prison Passage.

Info

The level features little area for cover, but is wide-spread and open, allowing for plenty of movement. This is where the player fights Minion halfway through the single-player mode of the game.

It is a small, enclosed, isolated arena which shows signs of many previous battles being fought there. For instance, there are many large spots of blood in the dirt, and there is also a large abundance of totaled cars (presumed to be previous Twisted Metal competitors). Considering the arena is small and there are no areas for contestants to hide, battles in this arena - especially against Minion himself - are usually frantic and quick.

Story Mode

In Black's Story Mode, each of the contestants will fight Minion in his Stadium halfway through their story. Passing this stage unlocks the character's middle story cutscene.

The chosen contestant arrives in Minion's Stadium and is locked inside of the arena, only to be met by Minion. After defeating him, the surviving contestant is knocked out, and the gates to the arena remain closed, only opening after the contestant awakes.

How to Unlock

To unlock Minion's Stadium, head to the east side of Downtown during story mode, and break into the building in the center of this block. Ride the elevator to the top, and scan the outermost edge of the building for a coffee cup (after rising from the elevator, turn left. There are actually two coffee cups on this building, one on the left side, and one on the right side - you are looking for the left one). Carefully jump down to the lowermost edge of the building, behind the coffee cup logo, and destroy the cup using your machine guns. From here, you should see the hidden level icon, a black cube with red curves orbiting around it. Jump into the cube by pressing L1+R1 while using your turbo. Picking up the icon will unlock Minion's Stadium for play outside of Story Mode. Please note that his does not unlock the character/vehicle Minion, but his stage.

Minion's Stadium can be fought with up to six enemies. If the player has Minion unlocked (through completion of Story Mode with all vehicles), then Minion can be fought here. However, this is the only map that Minion can be fought on. Fighting with Minion here also allows for the player to fight against him and five other vehicles. As a side note, the Minion fought here is still the same version from Story Mode, not the playable version - with a larger body and shield equipped.

Trivia

• Minion's Stadium is the second smallest Single Player level in Black, the first being Warhawk's Rooftop.
• Minion's Stadium looks remarkably similar to the stadium included in the Freeway level, although without the race track, repair station, or extra racers.
• The clouds risen above Minion's Stadium are colored a distinctive blood red and move incredibly fast.
