The official Transformers Instagram account is giving us the heads up of the official release of the Transformers: Tactical Arena Video Game in Apple Arcade.

The game, developed by Red Games, will be playable on iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple TV. We have some comments of the game via an article in Kotaku:

Transformers Tactical Arena is a card-based battle arena game in which two players compete to take down each other’s towers. Cards representing Transformers characters, drones, and weapons are deployed to the battlefield, marching slowly towards the opponent’s base. When units meet they do battle. Matches last a mere three minutes, or until one side loses their main base. It’s quick, fun, and a perfect slice of ancient Cybertronian conflict.

As with any Apple Arcade game, there are no microtransactions and you can unlock all prizes and bonus just by playing the game in old-school-style.  The game is already available for you in Apple Arcade if you wanna try it. Watch the promotional trailer and some screencaps after the break and let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Hasbro‘s Wizards Of The Coast division (previously a subsidiary) has opened up a new digital games division called New Raleigh-Durham Studio to develop AAA titles (for PC and Consoles) based on Hasbro properties.

This new division is lead by game industry veterans from big companies such as WB Games (Hitman series, Batman: Arkham series, etc.).

As first announced during Hasbro’s 2021 Investor Event, this new studio is currently aiming to produce games for Transformers, G.I. Joe, Micronauts, and Ouija.

As the first project, this North Carolina-based company will tackle G.I. Joe as a 3rd Person Action-Adventure game. The studio is now hiring for various positions such as Art Director, Lead Animator, Lead Game Designer, and Technical Director.

During a recent interview with Stifel Investment Bank, Wizards Of The Coast CEO Chris Cocks stated that Hasbro is aspiring to have a fully-fledged in-house digital games division to cater to a demanding video game market.

It won’t be long before we hear about other games including Transformers.

Transformers: Rise, the upcoming Console MMO Game, seems to be in trouble following managerial positions at LeYou, including its CEO Alexa Xu, leaving the company.

Popular game journalist Josh Ye who investigated the matter had the following to say in addition to his article at South China Morning Post.

“The final years of Leyou hunting for a buyout deal and the ensuing chaos have left a bad taste in the mouth of many who joined Leyou to create games based on famous intellectual properties such as Lord of the Rings and Transformers.“It has dashed the hopes of many who joined the company to create games,” one person said, “It went from having one of the best hands in the gaming business to nothing but another satellite studio for Tencent. It was a place that a PC and console gamer dreamt of working.”

In 2019, Leyou announced that it was helping Amazon to develop a game based on the Lord of the Rings franchise. In the same year, it said that it was developing Transformers Online for US toy giant Hasbro and Civilization Online with 2K Games for the PC and console platform. Multiple persons said that the overhaul at the company has now led to multiple cancelled projects which would incur heavy penalties for Leyou over breached deals with partners.

Ex-Leyou employees said that the company’s ambition to assert itself in the gaming business was thwarted by mismanagement and internal infighting. “People who did not care about games wound up being in charge. It was more interested in dressing itself up for a sale, and they did so by buying famous IPs with which they never intended to go through,” a person said.”
