According to a new rumor, Microsoft could have multiple Transformers projects in the works. Be they tie-ins to existing Transformers movies and shows or original adaptations like Transformers: War for Cybertron and its sequels, Hasbro’s juggernaut toy franchise has spawned several video games of varying quality and acclaim over its 40-year lifespan - with some of the most notable ones being published by Microsoft subsidiary Activision.
More recently, Transformers has seemingly been relegated to smaller mobile titles and spin-offs like the upcoming Transformers: Galactic Trials, as well as crossover appearances in the likes of Overwatch 2 and Fortnite. Almost two years ago, developer Splash Damage announced Transformers: Reactivate, a 1-4 player online action game that sees humans discover and reawaken some of the franchise’s most beloved Autobots and Decepticons to battle an alien threat to both Earth and Cybertron alike. However, very little has been revealed since Transformers: Reactivate was first revealed at The Game Awards 2022.
Overwatch 2's latest collaboration with Transformers has a series of Autobot and Decepticon skins for their favorite heroes.
In the meantime, a new rumor hints that there might be more Transformers gaming action on the horizon in 2024....
