The heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons are currently engaged in battle on the planet of Cybertron, which is the setting for the ongoing Transformers war. The number of casualties, however, continues to rise, and the front lines of the conflict have been moved deeper into Autobot territory. When the Decepticons reveal their secret weapon, the newly assembled Decepticon army, things go from bad to worse for the Autobots in their final stand.
A distress signal from the Mini-Cons, the long-lost third race of Transformers, rips through the air and lands in the battleground. Both the Autobots and the Decepticons rush to get to Earth as quickly as possible, as they know that the Mini-Cons will swing the balance of power. The Decepticons and their troops launch a ruthless invasion of Earth and treat the world as enemy territory. After that, it will be up to the Autobots to preserve Earth and stop the Decepticons from taking control of the entire universe.
The user chooses which of three highlighted Autobots they want to control and can switch between them anytime during a task. Optimus Prime, Hot Shot, and Red Alert are the names of these Autobots. All of them can morph into their vehicle forms, complete with transformation sounds reminiscent of the 1980s.
The players are tasked with locating and retrieving the approximately 40 different Mini-Con robots, which can either serve as weapons or be used to augment the Autobot’s existing powers. These add-ons include offensive weapons like Missile Launchers and Limpet Mines, Tractor Beam, Electric Arc Guns, Ribbon Beams, and other similar weapons; defensive abilities like Shields, Armours, and Recharges; and abilities like Glide Wings, Boost Jumps, and Dashes.
The player must engage in combat with the Decepticons and their army of Decepticons over various environments, such as the thick jungle of the Amazon, the icy wastes of Antarctica, and a harsh island in the Pacific.
The Decepticons, champions from an army of robots made to serve the Decepticons, take the form of the foes you will face throughout the levels.
The well-known Decepticons appear as bosses in the game, including Starscream, Cyclonus, Tidal Wave (as a full-scale Aircraft Carrier/robot), and Megatron, the leader of the Decepticons.
A timeless confrontation between virtue and evil…
