Transformers: Fall of Cybertron
About the Game
Fall of Cybertron takes place after the events of it's predecessor in which the Autobots and the Decepticons are still at war with each other. After defeating Trypticon, the Autobots have slowed down the attacks of Megatron and his minions of Decepticons however they now have a new problem. Cybertron is dying and the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, are unable to save it and must do what they can to survive by leaving their home and find a new world to live on.
Story & Setting
There is also multiplayer with the standard Deathmatch and Team Deathmatch modes along with Conquest and Capture the Flag with class-based characters players can customize by earning experience points.
Gameplay & Core Systems
The game play, like War for Cybertron , is a third-person shooter where players can use their Transformer to transverse through the level and use their ability to transform into vehicles to advance through the stage when they see fit. Across the adventure players can use Energon they pick up from fallen enemies and can use them at kiosks being ran by Teletran 1 and buy weapons and upgrades. The health system now features something similar to Halo with regenerating shields and each Transformer players uses has special abilities, such as the ability to be invisible (i.e. Jazz), players can use to help advance in the level. Unlike War for Cybertron where players can choose which side to play, Fall of Cybertron has a single campaign with chapters that tells the story through either the Autobots or Decepticons and at times intersect their encounters.
Standout Features
- In secret they have built a massive ship called The Ark and are now readying it for flight.
- Some of the characters players can control include Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream and even Grimlock to name a few.
- There is also a "Horde mode" called Escalation where up to four players face waves of increasingly difficult enemies.
