Recently Hasbro surprised fans of Transformers with the announcement of a new video game. Entitled Transformers: Reactivate developed by Splash Damage, it is the second video game to be revealed this year. It really is a pleasant surprise as there weren’t hints or rumors about a new Transformers game.
But there’s nothing much to go on at this point but we do know that it will be a 1-4 player co-op online action game created for PC and Console, and it will have a new storyline played out in the Transformers universe. Here’s the synopsis:
“The gravest threat to humanity has arrived. And it’s already won. Earth is no longer ours; it belongs to them. All we have left is our hope for the Autobots, as we salvage them from the rubble left behind.”
Players will get to play as some of their favorite characters and yes, the Transformers characters can transform between bot and alt mode during the battle with the threat known as The Legion.
Beyond those bits, I don’t believe there is anything more to go with. Oh, wait. But there’s an announcement trailer which you can find below.
The Transformers: Reactivate will have a Closed Beta in 203. However, when exactly the game will be released has not been announced. Meanwhile, fans can sign up now at the game’s website for future updates.
