A 72 average on few ratings — judge this one for yourself. Adventure in the classic sense: science fiction, warfare, forward momentum, and places worth seeing. Play it solo first. The multiplayer will still be there when you're done.

About this game

Transformers: War for Cybertron is a third-person shooter video game based on the Transformers franchise. Set on the Transformers' home planet of Cybertron, prior to their arrival on Earth, the game depicts the deadly civil war between Autobots and Decepticons. Players may pick either faction, as each has its own separate campaign. The game was delisted at the end of 2017 and the online multiplayer servers were shutdown in April 2020.

Become the ultimate weapon. Fight to the end in the war that started it all. Wield an arsenal of lethal, high-tech weaponry and change form from robot to vehicle at any time as you battle through the living, metallic world of Cybertron. Separate Autobot and Decepticon campaigns take you from Autobot and Decepticon cities, to the Energon core of Cybertron, to the outer reaches of the orbital debris while pitting brother against brother and friend against foe. Experience Optimus’ rise to greatness and Megatron’s thirst for destruction. The balance of power between Autobots and Decepticons is in your hands.
