The campaign can be played in single-player or cooperatively via online multiplayer, and players can enter or leave the game at any time. Įach campaign level gives the player a choice of three Transformers. While in vehicle form each character can boost their speed. While in robot form characters can also collect different weapons, reminiscent of those found in first-person shooters. Players can change between forms at will, and each form has unique abilities. Each character in the campaign is classified as one of these types, and their weaponry, abilities and vehicle form are largely influenced by their character class. Transformers are classified into four main categories, Leader, Soldier, Scientist, and Scout. War for Cybertron is played from a third-person perspective. The PC-Multiplayer-Mode was discontinued with the discontinuation of the Games for Windows Service, with the Developer not switching over to a different service (like Steam, where they also sold the Game). A sequel, Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, was released in August 2012, and a third game, Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, was released in June 2014. It was praised for its multiplayer, character designs, and voice acting, with criticism reserved for the visual design of the game's setting. War for Cybertron received generally favorable reviews, with many viewing it as an improvement over past Transformers games. While the evil Decepticon leader Megatron seeks this substance for himself, believing it will allow him to return the planet to its "golden age", the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, attempt to stop him, knowing it would instead doom their homeworld. The game's plot revolves around a substance known as Dark Energon, a more dangerous and destructive version of Energon, which powers the Transformers. Players may pick either faction, as each has their own separate campaign (though the Deception one is chronologically the first one). 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.
A game for the Wii, Transformers: Cybertron Adventures, was developed by Next Level Games and utilizes the same characters and setting as War for Cybertron.
Two portable versions were released for the Nintendo DS, one featuring an Autobot campaign, the other a Decepticon campaign.
It was released for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Microsoft Windows in June 2010. Transformers: War for Cybertron is a third-person shooter video game based on the Transformers franchise, developed by High Moon Studios and published by Activision.
