Roadkill is a unlockable vehicle from Twisted Metal (2012). It has good all-around speed and handling but fairly low armor.
Design[]
Once again, Roadkill resembles a junk muscle car, though it looks cleaner compared to past renditions. It is modeled after a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS, especially in the rear pillar, quarters, and fascia. The body, however, lacks the heavy creases of the 1969 Camaro, looking more like that of the 1967 model. The grille resembles that of a Ford Mustang.
Special Weapons[]
- Chain Gun (55 pts): Its primary special weapon is the Chain Gun, similar to Death Warrant's. However, Roadkill's version can be charged up to inflict slightly more damage.
- Blood Missiles / Drop Mines (when pressing down on d-pad): Its secondary special is also similar to Death Warrant's, except Roadkill's can be charged up to level three to fire a volley of blood missiles. In addition, when Roadkill's primary special weapon is fired backwards, four Drop Mines are released out of the trunk.
