This is a third-person
action game where players choose to fight as either Autobots or Decepticons in their war for the AllSpark on Earth. Players will engage in combat, transform between robot and vehicle forms, and utilize various weapons and abilities to achieve victory.
STORY
Long ago, on the distant planet Cybertron, a race of autonomous robotic life forms waged civil war without end. Two factions rose and fought for an artifact of unspeakable power, which gave life to their race: the AllSpark.
The AUTOBOTS, sworn to protect the AllSpark, battled heroically against the treacherous DECEPTICONS, who desired the AllSpark's power only for evil. Their war raged on, and in a final act of self-sacrifice the AUTOBOTS jettisoned the AllSpark into the depths of space, where it would remain hidden for countless years on a remote planet called Earth. Now, the forces of good and evil gather again to continue their battle for the AllSpark, and the war that began on Cybertron will be finished on Earth. Their war. Our world. Your Choice.
