Video game developer Certain Affinity is hard at work to develop a brand new game [tentatively] titled as Transformers Online.
The company is working under wraps ever since Hasbro awarded them the licence back in mid-2017.
Certain Affinity’s Toronto branch is working collaboratively with their Austin headquarters to bring this game to you.
Transformers Online is confirmed to be a Third-Person Shooter very much like Transformers: War For Cybertron and its sequel Fall Of Cybertron as well as the recently popular Fortnite by Epic Games.
The company is mostly known for their contributions towards the multiplayer aspects of Call Of Duty and Halo franchises. Also, judging by the developer, Transfomers Online is most likely a Console/PC game.
We expect an announcement (and our first look) during New York Toy Fair 2019. Stick with TFW2005 for more info.

Me too, but only because then I would be powerless in the face of its awesomeness.

I think Hasbro will be focusing too much on reveal news for One
Since I think after the trailer drops we will be getting a poster and maybe more actor reveals with which characters they are voicing similar how ROTB did since after the trailer dropped we were given the rest of the VA cast minus Cheetor

Since one is having its trailer tomorrow would be it too early to say that a trailer could happened late may or during the summer game fest?
Luke Stark
The game should do well
Since this will be different so I think we should have hopes for the game
Soundlips
I so hope you are right
But
Even if in the end the game gets canned I still hope they release the rest of the figures because goddamn I still want them
MrJoshimusPrime
Man I hope you're right about that

Very high, the way I see it is Hasbro has begun to market TF: One. The month of May is Earthspark. June is Reactivate.

I think it'll bring in big transformers fans but a big budget live service game is going to need to bring in more than just diehard fans

Nothings been as bad of a wait as this though imo, at least with Universe we got to play it for a bit before mismanagement killed it. I'd really rather they hadn't announced anything until they knew they were good to go with something.

People just say stuff

Jokes aside, that WOULD be funny… if it was the first time this happened to an in-development TF game (unfortunately that's very familiar territory for us). Still, assuming the game is getting cancelled seems highly speculative, given the recent activity regarding Unreal Engine 5 and the support page launching.
Midas
NGL I would laugh if it was dead just because it would make this long thread of speculating very funny in retrospect, all those people waiting and hoping, all for naught. Of course that would just be me trying to make the best of it if the game did become stillborn, I'd much prefer it come out (and actually not suck like I fear it will) because man I could go for a new TF game, or maybe I'll just do another run of Devastation for the one thousandth time, I found out the Internet Archive has them with the DLC (and FOC/WFC is there too) since they're abandonware, a run with the DLC skins would add some nice variety.

Not many people who are fans play fortnite or aware I would assume if anything it's the only transformers game we have currently lol
DarkRed401
I think it'll get released but I just don't see it selling well. Live services games are massive gamble and we already have transformers in games like fortnite.

Part of me fears that this game will be Wareframe but Transformers
MrJoshimusPrime
What are the chances of Transformers Reactivate showing up at Summer Games Feast?
Frosty Coffee
I'm surprised anyone would think it's dead after seeing that support page go up and Reactivate being the banner used. Not only that the announcement from a dev about the game on the site.
MrJoshimusPrime
How about we just wait till Summer Games Feast in June and see what happens
Zoo
Explain why thats safe to say
Luke Stark
I wouldn't say the game is dead yet
it is most likely they are still doing some final testing with behind closed door beta testing
I would assume during the SGF we should have more info on the game
