Grimlock is Coming to Activision's 'Transformers: Fall of Cybertron'
Posted 10/20/11 7:07 pm ET by MTV Video Games in News, PS3, Xbox 360
Expect classic Transformers character Grimlock in Fall of Cybertron
During New York Comic Con, Activision and developer High Moon Studios debuted the teaser trailer for their latest Transformers game, the ominously-titled Fall of Cybertron. With a Fall 2012 release date, the game is still a ways off, but at least we have some plot details courtesy of its Wikipedia entry:
Fall of Cybertron continues the story from Transformers: War for Cybertron with the civil war between the Autobots and the Decepticons over control of their home world, Cybertron... Fall of Cybertron depicts the final battle between the two robot factions which results in the destruction of their home world, forcing the Autobots to seek refuge in our galaxy, the Milky Way. The game will include the Transformers character Bumblebee and at least one of the Dinobots: their leader, Grimlock. Other characters confirmed include Optimus Prime, Jazz, Cliffjumper, Shockwave, Megatron, Starscream, Vortex, and Bruticus.

'Transformers: Dark Of The Moon' Review
Posted 6/23/11 6:12 pm ET by Rick Marshall in PS3, Reviews, Xbox 360
Just when you thought the Transformers of Michael Bay's movie universe had retreated into an Energon-induced coma, they're back for another round of Autobot vs. Decepticon gaming action. The "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" tie-in game is tasked with bridging the gap between the last film, "Revenge of the Fallen," and the upcoming third film, while also drawing upon the success of the critically praised "Transformers: War For Cybertron," which unfolded outside of the movie continuity.
'Transformers' MMO Coming From 'RuneScape' Dev
Posted 3/14/11 4:55 pm ET by Adam Rosenberg in News, PC
As big as Hasbro's "Transformers" franchise was in the 1980s, the popularity of the toy line and its related spin-off properties has reached new heights in recent years thanks to the financial success of the two Michael Bay films and, more recently, the Activision game "Transformers: War for Cybertron." Now there's another game coming in addition to the one pegged to Bay's summer threequel, "Transformers: Dark of the Moon." The untitled 2012 release, which is in the hands of "RuneScape" developer Jagex Limited, is unsurprisingly (and quite awesomely) an online game.
'Transformers: War For Cybertron' Sequel Confirmed For 2012
Posted 11/15/10 3:23 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News
Activision and Hasbro have now moved passed the stage of talking to each other about doing a "Transformers: War for Cybertron" sequel and are now ready to talk to to the general public about it; or at least Hasbro is. In addition to unloading a "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" game to coincide with Michael Bay's third TF movie in 2011 and an MMO from NetDragon, a "War for Cybertron" follow-up will be scheduled to drop in 2012.
Transformers MMO Announced, But Not For North America
Posted 8/3/10 2:37 pm ET by Brian Warmoth in News, PC
Hasbro designer Aaron Archer's request for "Twisted Metal: Transformers" may not be fulfilled anytime soon, but his company has moved forward with a "exclusive" licensing agreement to get a Transformers MMO called "Transformers Online" out for 2011 in Asia, MENA (Middle East and North Africa) and Russia. The game will be developed out of China by NetDragon, but North America doesn't look like it's in line for a release at this point.
More Transformers games are possible down the road, but downloadable content for "Transformers: War for Cybertron" is possible as well. In fact, someone already wrote up a description about it and posted it to the Xbox Live Marketplace, where it has since been taken down, according to TFormers.com.
More Transformers Games Possible From Activision And Hasbro

"Transformers: War for Cybertron" reactions were definitely not universally bad. The game has its weakness, but it turned out to be a big enough success that Activision and Hasbro could push forward with a follow-up or two.
Both companies are currently "talking" about their plans, according to a panel report from BotCon 2010 over on TFormers.com.
'Transformers: War For Cybertron' Review - Less Than Meets The Eye
Posted 6/22/10 1:00 pm ET by Adam Rosenberg in PS3, Reviews, Xbox 360
Hasbro's "Transformers" are a big deal right now. It's like the '80s all over again, except the graphics are much, much better. Prime time then for gamers to take a jaunt across Cybertron, first overthrowing the filthy Autobot overlords and then beating back the vile Decepticon usurpers. That's exactly what players are tasked with doing in "Transformers: War for Cybertron," the latest effort from "The Bourne Conspiracy" developer High Moon Studios.
'Transformers: War For Cybertron' First Look
Posted 3/9/10 10:00 pm ET by Russ Frushtick in PS3, Previews, Xbox 360
The last few "Transformers" games were forgettable, and that's putting it kindly. True, they were based on movies, and that's a tough hill to climb, but they still never really stood out as exemplary pieces of software in any major way. It was with that in mind that I went in to see "Transformers: War for Cybertron." My expectations were not very high. Thankfully my first glimpse at the game met and exceeded those expectations (though, admittedly, that's not much of a triumph).
With a new developer (High Moon Studios) and a new engine (Unreal), "Transformers: War for Cybertron" is another beast entirely. It's an action game starring robots that turn into vehicles, but there's a lot more to cover beyond that basic facade.
'Transformers: War For Cybertron' Gets A Trailer And Youthful Optimus Prime

Longtime Transformers followers will recognize the setting for Activision's latest announcement as neither the world of Michael Bay's "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," nor the 1980s cartoon series. Instead, "Transformers: War for Cybertron" flashes back to the pre-Earth lives of the Autobots and Decepticons on their home planet.
