Transformers Video Games

In the beginning of the month, we had a report on some details for figures in the Transformers: Reactivate toyline. However, it was up in the air when or if they would actually be released.

Fortunately, thanks to some further detective work of TFW’s Jtprime17, we may now have our answer: Not only does it seem they will indeed be coming, but their estimated release date is for October 1st of this year.

In addition to the Optimus Prime/Soundwave pack, we now also have info for a Starscream/Bumblebee pack as well:

“Tra Shine 1 Voy Optimus Prime & Dlx Soundwave
Product Number: F0384
EAN: 5010994148447
Estimated Release Date: October 1st, 2023
3 Per case

Tra Shine 2 Voy Starscream & Dlx Bumblebee
Product Number: F0383
EAN: 5010994148591
Estimated Release October 1st, 2023
3 Per Case”

We recommend taking this as a rumor until we receive official confirmation, but for now you can let us know what you’re hoping to see out of this line on the boards!

TFW’s Jtprime17 has come to us today with an interesting discovery: What appears to be product descriptions for Transformers: Shine Optimus Prime and Soundwave figures. These were going to be toys for the Transformers: Rise video game – which has since been renamed Transformers: Reactivate. It’s unknown when or if these will ever release, but you can check it out below!

“If you guys remember there was 2 listings for Tra Shine packs. Well those were originally going to be transformers rise (now reactivate) figures.

Here’s the official product description for one of the packs. I’m not sure when it will or ever see release.

TRANSFORMERS – 6.5″ Voyager Class Optimus Prime and 5.5″ Deluxe Class Soundwave – Rise Video Game-Inspired – Collectible Action and Toy Figures – Toys for Kids – Boys and Girls – F0384 – Ages 8+

Artist Mary-Sue Challinor has shared, via her Artstation account, a Transformers: Battlegrounds concept art gallery for our viewing pleasure.

Courtesy of TFW member Frosty Coffee and his newest Youtube video on the upcoming Transformers Reactivate game, we have what appears to be screenshots from the actual game itself. These show off a roster of character designs (including Starscream, Slipstream, Hot Rod, Soundwave, Sunstreaker, Ironhide, and Windblade) as well as possible gameplay screenshots.

Keep in mind however, it appears these shots are from quite early on in the game’s development, and with multiple reports detailing its rocky development it’s unknown how much has been kept.

Take this as a rumor for now and let us know your thoughts on the boards!

Via Artist T. Darren Chiu’s Artstation account we can share for you new character concept, promotional art and more unreleased material of the cancelled Transformers Heavy Metal video game.

Transformers Heavy Metal AR mobile game was planned to be an AR mobile game developed by Niantic, but unfortunately it was cancelled in June this year after being available only as a beta test in a few countries. We have a look at the character concept of Arcee, Jazz, Roulette, Soundwave, Starscream, Shadow Striker, some promotional posters featuring several other characters and a huge load of Minicon concept images.

Via Weibo user 赛博坦联邦情報局 we have what seems to be new images of Optimus Prime, Megatron and Bumblebee from the recently revealed Transformers Reactivate video game.

We have images in robot and alt mode of each of the aforementioned characters. As we can see from the images, the designs are stylized but still blocky in some way. Keep in mind that some of the images are labeled as “Work In Progress” so we thery may be differences in the final version of the game.

To top it all, via Beau Ivey YouTube channel we can share for you two possible cutscenes from the game. The scenes reveal some part of the story of the game, the new enemy: The Legion and the fact that the Aurobots would not be the only ones taking part on this new war.

As usual, take this with a grain of salt until we get an official confirmation. This may be a very early art/footage that may have been cut from the final game. Stay tuned with this space for more updates!
