It’s been a while, but the official Transformers: Forged To Fight website have update information about their next big update for 2022.
Titled as: “2022 Roadmap: Expanding the Fight!”, we have information on how to get new bots and how they will play in the game, the new content schedule, off cycle events and they confirm that this year they will focus on updating more content and modes. More details are yet to be revealed but new Bots are going to be revealed when version 9.0 releases on February 8th.
You can read all the article here or a text version after the jump. Click on the discussion link below and let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards.
More Bots!
In the next Timeslide, Commanders will find Dirge was guarding a recently uncovered natural Spacebridge against the clutches of Necrotronus! Once activated, this Spacebridge will open gates to worlds unseen, bringing new friends and foes to New Quintessa!
Commanders can look forward to more new Bots coming their way this year, starting with 2 new Bots in v9.0 coming later this month! One of these Bots has been hiding in plain sight, while the other is our take on a Generations classic.
Don’t hold on to those Bot Chips or Titan Fragments though! These new Bots will be available in Crystals and other offers before being added to any other method of acquisition.
These new Bots will not be released right away, and come with a new content schedule of events and Missions themed around them.
New Content Schedule
Each new Bot will have a 5-week event dedicated to them. These events will include:
2 Timeslide length Missions called “Bot Incursions”
Objectives
Login Rewards
4 Featured Bots available for Bot Chips
Showcases for the featured bots and the new arrival
Alliance Events
This new schedule will be replacing our current monthly content schedule. During this time, our goal is to really make the Game feel like it’s dedicated to the New Bot.
Off-Cycle Events
There won’t always be back-to-back Bot releases, and during those downtimes, we’ll be running special off-cycle events, focussing on other Bots, factions and teams on New Quintessa, such as Beast Wars or Decepticon events!
More Content Update Priorities
Throughout the year, we also want to take some time to focus on updating some other kinds of content and modes. We don’t have details to share on these at the moment, but would like to give you a glimpse at some of the priorities we are working on:
Sharkticon Week Revamp: We’ve revamped this fan-favourite event, and you can look forward to it coming soon!
Quest Content Update: We want to work on new Buffs and Map layouts to give players more variety in-game, as well as taking another look at Prime Difficulty as more Commanders have access to Rank 6 Bots.
Alliance Mission Update: We want to adjust the Alliance Mission Map to be shorter, so that we can regularly mix up the Bots alliances will be facing off against, and reinvigorate the challenge in one of our most popular game modes.
This all starts soon!
Get ready Commanders, because all of this kicks off this month! You’ll find out the first new Bots heading your way when v9.0 releases on Feb 8th, and have your chance to snag one of them before the end of the month! These won’t be the last new Bots you see this year either, so look forward to even more additions to the Fight throughout 2022!

thanks and what is gacha ? Im showing my age I guess LOL
and yeah maybe 1 star bots is all

Fear of missing out.
Like, limited banners for characters who are unavailable once the banner ends. Typical gacha stuff.

I have no idea what FOMO is but as for content…………… the only thing I can think of that was available at the beginning but that is not available now is 1 star bots. At least for me, they are not available. Only 2 star and up
Phil Bond
I asked a question about whether the game has any bygone content that can no-longer be obtained, and two separate people answered as if I was asking whether the game is free or not. I can’t trace that train of thought at all. Maybe they just don’t know what FOMO is? But then why answer the question?
And they talk about it being free like that would be a good thing. As if free-to-play doesn’t ruin every game it touches.

I somehow lost all my data for this game and had to start from the beginning. Not gonna spend all those hours trying to get everything back.

i love this game and want to support it but man is it expensive, I mean if you wanted the new bot it would cost you 100 USD to buy it. So I usually just wait and get it the free way. Had it been like 20 bucks , I would buy it. Just crazy too expensive
Again been playing non stop since day one and love it. Just dont spend much money on it because the prices are wrack, its like new ps5 game this month ? or a new bot on FTF ? pretty obvious which is the better deal overall.

It’s a mobile game so technically pretty much everything could be gotten for free. It’ll just take an unrealistic amount of time.

If Blitzwing gets added (if even at all) it won’t be for quite a while since the next few bots after Rodimus have been confirmed to be Soundblaster, Chromia, Sunstreaker, and Dead End

You can eventually get everything for free, but it will take you a long time. The resources it takes to unlock bots are much easier to obtain as you level up your bots, so it's going to take a long time to build up a good roster and level them up. Once there though, the really nice thing is that there are more options than just the gacha crystals.
First off, there are the Bot Chips. You can accumulate these through normal gameplay. Each month, there will be 4 featured bots that can be purchased using these chips. That includes even the 5* versions for 1M chips. I've been having no trouble earning more than 1M chips per month. And it appears new bots will make their way into these rotations about 6 months after being added.
Second, new bots can be obtained freely. Each new bot will have a 4* version available just by logging in 28 days out of the 35-day event period. The 5* version will be offered as a purchase for 3500 energon before the event ends. Energon can be purchased through microtransactions, but I've been able to gather enough through normal gameplay to get the last couple, and I'm well ahead of schedule to be ready for Rodimus. Again though, you need to be leveled up enough to reach the point where that's ordinary.
The last category is for the special bots. There are a handful of bots that are not part of the standard bot pool. You can get up to 4* versions of them in standard crystals, but they are never available for bot chips and their 5* versions are only available through special events/purchases or through titan shards. You can get those shards for free, but it will take a LONG time. Think many months per bot, best case. I have every non-titan shard 5* bot, but have no illusions about ever getting all these bots.

Rodimus has every chance of becoming the weakest fighter of the Tactics class. Of all the possible things they could give Radius in terms of abilities, they decided to take the most unobvious – armor and increased damage due to missing health. Do you know who it would suit more? Ultra Magnus. Or Razorbeast. But clearly not Rodimus.
Do you know what would suit him best? Increased damage due to the accumulation of passive incineration charges. And each special strike zeroed these charges in the arson debuff on the enemy. And with a super-strike, he would immediately gain ten incineration charges.
What I offer is more suitable for Rodimus than what Kabam offers. I\'m afraid to imagine that they will make Chromia out of Jetfire. Because it\'s Kabam. They did almost all the characters that way.
Phil Bond
Visually the game seems fantastic. If it was on a real platform and had a purchase model like Tekken 7, I’d buy it plus a bunch of season passes for $100+ no problem, but with touchscreen inputs and gatcha mechanics, I’ll never touch it.
fishpop
If only i could still play the game but it became too fat for my cheap phone.
Not really, back when i played i managed to get at least over half to most of the characters.
I even got Necrotronus, who's the final boss.
The only issue is Gacha luck giving you dudes you don't have instead of dupes.
At least dupes power up the bot it's a duplicate of, the first dupe even unlocking a special ability.

I hope they will add G1 Blitzwing next, having a triple changer in Forged To Fight could make things a bit more interesting.

Shame this isn't a desktop game

Does this game have FOMO, or can someone pick it up right now and unlock everything?
