Based on the Transformers: The Game , players take on the role of either Autobot or Decepticon factions in a bid to find the AllSpark, an artifact that gave life to their race. The Autobots seek to protect it for good, while the Decepticons aim to harness its power for evil.
The game is set in a 3D sandbox environment, allowing players to interact with and destroy the environment as they choose between the two teams, each with different story-based goals. Players can select characters such as Optimus Prime or Bumblebee from the Autobots, or Megatron and Starscream from the Decepticons.
Gameplay features include a third-person perspective, where robots can switch between robot and vehicle forms, jump, block, dive underground, roll, dodge, use weapons, and climb buildings. Special actions can be unlocked through the skill tracker, providing extras such as glowing symbols that light up upon completion of long slides or jumps.
Collectibles are scattered throughout the game, including promo images and artwork, as well as playable versions of original "Generation 1" characters. While gameplay is largely identical across platforms, certain features are unique to specific versions.
Transformers: The Game was released for the Xbox 360 on 2007-06-26 , allowing players to experience this action-packed adventure in a 3D sandbox environment.
