Twisted Edge Snowboarding was announced on June 10, 1997, just as development on it was starting. Kemco was the publisher of the game in Europe, and Midway acquired the rights to publish the game in North America on October 15, 1997. The game's design was heavily inspired by the Wave Race series. Much of the code for the game was recycled from Boss Game Studio's first Nintendo 64 game, Top Gear Rally. In particular, it used the same Alias plug-ins. While Kemco was still the publisher, the company's Japanese division pushed for the game to include a story mode in the Japanese version, in part due to marketing research which determined that Wave Race 64 would have sold better in Japan if it had had a story. Boss Games took a tongue-in-cheek approach to adding story to the game, and opted to make the story mode an unlockable Easter egg in the U.S. version. On January 22, 1998, the game was delayed for 4 months. The game was finally released on November 10, 1998 in the United States, followed by a Japanese release over a month later (December 18), before being ported to the PAL region and released on March 12, 1999.
