I'm going for the latter, at least by what I'm seeing in the teaser.

 

[RLCC14]

It's no Devastation 2 but I'll take it.

 

[Strings]

God, I would be super happy if this is an SRPG.

 

[Alien Bob]

I remember transformers

 

[Zomba13]

Is this a moba?

 

[Khanimus]

"Transformers meets XCOM"

Okay then,

 

[Cactuar]

Well that was a little less than meets the eye.

 

[Starphanluke]

I'm always down for a Transformers game, though I have no idea what type of game this is. SRPG? Battle Royale game?

 

[Tizoc]

Shame these fellas won't be in, very likely @_@

 

[randomlee26]

Outright Games puts out better licensed games than some of the other publishers of that ilk. This could be okay.

 

[anderson64]

Looks fun!

 

[Chindogg]

It looks like it uses the Animated art style.

Really happy to see if that's true.

 

[LiK]

Not a fan of the visuals

 

[Lothars]

No idea what kind of game is that. Party/multiplayer? Strategy?

I think it's strategy but I had exactly the same type of reaction. I have no clue what type of game it is from the trailer.

Thank you Op for the information

I think this is the developer:

Games - Our Developed and Supported Titles - Coatsink®

Among our growing catalog of games, you’ll find an array of genres – telekinetic puzzlers, cartoonish platformers, even a tactical VR-RPG – find out more.

The official blurb on Gematsu doesn't really tell us anything:

As evil Megatron closes in on the Allspark, Bumblebee and the Autobots need a new commander to help save Earth—you! Assemble your squad and roll out for a battle that will rage from Central City to Cybertron… and even to the local multiplayer arcade! More information to follow soon.

just watched this as well, very interesting. now want to see some game play to get a handle on what it is

 

[Finaika]

No Omega Supreme?

 

[LunarDuck]

Thought it was Battle Royale at first glance, looks cool and hopefully at a good price.

 

[cyress8]

Missing the transformation sound. Disappointed.

 

[Laserbeam]

trailer didn't do much for me, but the idea of a Transformers XCom is intriguing enough.

 

[Billfisto]

I really hope they go more obscure with the characters.

If they're sticking to G1, at least give me Hoist!

 

[Comic Obsessed]

Can they just remaster the War for Cybertron, Fall of Cybertron and Devastation games?

Seriously, I fell out of both videogames and Transformers at the same time during that era and now I would love to play them.

 

[Marcus Aurelius]

Looks like it belongs on Mobile

 

[OnionPowder]

Just make this play like freedom force and i'll be a happy camper

 

[kurahador]

Ehhhh...looks like one of those gacha strategy mobile games.

 

[ZeroX]

That's one ugly ass game

 

[Harpoon]

More details here:

The game, from U.K. developer Coatsink, will launch for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and PC on Oct. 23. Described as a "tactical warfare adventure" will be the first Transformers game ever for the Switch and the first console game in five years.

It will bring "the timeless, legendary war between Autobots and Decepticons to life in a never before seen way," the companies said. "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 rage from Central City to Cybertron in both single player and multiplayer action."

It looks like it uses the Animated art style.

Really happy to see if that's true.

Click to shrink...

It's the current cyberverse cartoon style that's being used for most the spinoff material

 

[Mindwipe]

Given it uses the Cyberverse cartoon designs this is probably targeted at under-10s, so I wouldn't get my hopes up.

 

[Starphanluke]

It looks like it uses the Animated art style.

Really happy to see if that's true.

Not animated, unfortunately. It's based on the recently-finished Cyberverse animated series, which was actually better than most expected it to be. Nowhere near as good as Animated, though.

 

[SunBroDave]

holy shit that is some intense chromatic aberration

 

[RestEerie]

Is this pubg but transformers and 'YOU GOT THE TOUCH!' playing in the background?

 

[Comic Obsessed]

Not animated, unfortunately. It's based on the recently-finished Cyberverse animated series, which was actually better than most expected it to be. Nowhere near as good as Animated, though.

Most of the toys were trash though.

Well, I'm not interested in the multiplayer aspect of it in the slightest. Hopefully the singleplayer is competent.

 

[SpottieO]

Transformers SRPG would be totally awesome and I kind of dig that art style.

 

[Deleted member 51248]

if its Bot-Com I would definitely be interested in checking it out

 

[Dash Kappei]

way to fuck up the iconic transformation sound in your teaser hypetrailer guys

I know some of those games and they are overall well regarded.

 

[Scar]

interested.

 

[Black Mantis]

Interesting take, I'll keep an eye on it for sure.

 

[KoolAid]

Sounds more like a Gang Beasts type of game, not a SRPG, to be honest.

 

[StreamedHams]

It's no Devastation 2 but I'll take it.

By the way, I would love to play a Transformers RPG.

Shame these fellas won't be in, very likely @_@

They won't be anywhere since they're from an universe that was just rebooted.

 

[Karlinel]

Transformers Battle Royale, let the cybertron wars rage on!
