In some news that is not PlayStation 5 related, Bandai Namco and Outright Games have announced that Transformers are making a return, with the release later this year of Transformers Battlegrounds.

Coming to Switch, Xbox One, PC and PlayStation 4 on October 23, players will get to experience the legendary war of the Transformers in an all new way.

“The TRANSFORMERS franchise is one of the most enduring and recognizable in the world of entertainment,” said Terry Malham, CEO of Outright Games. “It’s an honour to work with this beloved universe and these iconic characters to create a new and exciting TRANSFORMERS console game that families can enjoy together.”

 “TRANSFORMERS: BATTLEGROUNDS is a new and authentic take on what a TRANSFORMERS video game can be,” says Mark Blecher, Hasbro SVP Corporate Strategy and Business Affairs. “It’s exciting for us to bring the epic story of the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons to life for a new generation of fans on console.”

As the evil Megatron closes in on the Allspark, Bumblebee and the Autobots need a new commander to help save Earth, as they team up and roll out into battles that will range from Central City to Cybertron in both single player and multiplayer action.
