Concept artist Nathan Elmer lined up a treat for those of you playing the recently released Transformers: Battlegrounds video game.
A bunch of freelance work I did for Coatsink Games through the end of 2019. It’s the first shipped game I got to concept on, and it’s cool I’ve been playing through to see how it all turned out!
A sample of images from Elmer’s full gallery is ready to view after the read more jump, order the game here, then sound off on the 2005 boards!

I mean for a budget licensed game based on an existing cartoon, it’s fine. It’s a notable step down from what preceded it, but for a franchise known for having some really shitty games, it’s still fine on its own right

I was actually looking into depth in this last night, as I discovered it by surprise in the midst of writing a game review for it on my website. A brief search for it will show you the new trophies, which basically explain what it's about:
Shattered Spacebridge achievements in Transformers: Battlegrounds
You've got a new randomized campaign. Basically it seems like you choose your squad at the beginning, and through a randomized collection of stages you have to find a spacebridge piece in each mission until you've got them all. Your characters don't normally regain health in between missions, but the campaign itself is shorter. Because the campaign is randomized, each playthrough is different, but the story is non-existent beyond "We're in another dimension, collect a spacebridge piece in each level and then assemble them and go home.". There are new maps, it says.
Otherwise it seems like about 90% of if it is re-using existing assets, just randomizing said assets and making the campaign more of a "sprint" without healing between missions to make for a slightly new play experience.
I wouldn't say it's lazy so much as the budget for it is VERY limited. The game definitely suffers from its very low budget, what with few enemy types and models, but the core mechanics are interesting and sound.

Well i just sw t trailer but i didnt see any new thing.
New missions on the same map as the main game.
No new characters, no "playing as decepticons mode"
They could have at least put hotrod. Lasy game (and I have it)

Looks like it's just more missions, with the story based around the spacebridge.

In other news, anyone noticed any Transformers Easter eggs in the recently released Cyberpunk game?

Eh, it looks ok but the game seems very average given that it\'s based on Cyberverse.
Arkimus Prime
What's up with the Furai Prime?

It doesn’t need to be as I prefer short games. I’m actually playing Ghosts now and reaching 100hours it feels like. This looks dope. Has a TF Devastation look while being a shooter? How did I not know about this?
just a transformers fan
the charging icon means the autobots are charging their iphones

Yeah dood.
It's not Ghost of Tsushima or anything but I had fun with it!
