Transformers is getting a racing adventure game called Transformers: Galactic Trials. The game will have rogue-lite elements and will be the first Transformers racing game on console. The game will be out on PC via Steam, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S on October 11, 2024.
Outright Games, a British video game publisher specializing in kids’ video games, will be the publisher for Transformers: Galactic Trials. Meanwhile 3DClouds, a Milan-based team known for its portfolio of racing games, will develop the game.
Here is the official description of the game:
After the evil NEMESIS PRIME steals the Prime Relics, the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS must set out on a rip-roaring adventure to recover these artifacts and control the incredible powers they bestow. Fans can play as iconic AUTOBOTS or DECEPTICONS, including Bumblebee, Megatron, Elita-1 and Optimus Prime and race across battle-race circuits to collect relics and beat opponents. The gameplay incorporates both traditional arcade racing in vehicle form and dynamic combat in bot-form, as players must defeat enemies and make it to the finish line.
Additionally, players can progress in the game and collect new relics, with that they can evel up their skills and unlock new playable characters and skins. In the game’s single-player mode, called Galactic Trials, it will let you play through levels and collect relics. Moreover, two-player Arcade mode lets you enter a quick race, creating a custom racing experience with your track, character and weapons, or enter location-based specialized tournaments.
Despite not releasing a new trailer, another Transformers game was previously announced which was set to be a 1-4 player online action game.
