Giant robotic life forms known as Transformers are at civil war. Transformers: Fall of Cybertron is a direct continuation of Transformers: War for Cybertron.
AUTOBOT STRONG HOLD UPGRADE
Players can also buy and upgrade their gear. Hundreds of pieces and color options are available. Several parts from famous Transformers can be used, such as heads, torsos, legs, and arms. Autobot and Decepticon Transformers can be customized with parts earned through a ranking system or purchased through the game's marketplace. Franchise characters are used in Escalation, while players can customize one of four character classes (Scientist, Infiltrator, Destroyer, and Titan) on 9 different maps (Sewers, Spire, Abandoned, Bowels, Array, Corrosion, Tempest, Convoy, Desolation) in competitive multiplayer. As gameplay progresses, new sections of the level open, which give players access to upgraded weapons and abilities. In this mode players must defend against increasingly difficult waves of enemies. The survival mode Escalation from War for Cybertron returns. The online cooperative campaign play featured in the first game has been removed in favor of levels that utilize each character's specific abilities. When he gains enough rage, Grimlock is able to transform and inflict massive damage. Carrying only a sword and shield, Grimlock cannot transform at will, instead accumulating rage as he battles opponents. The Autobot Grimlock, who transforms into a robotic Tyrannosaurus, is controlled differently than other characters. Scale is maintained so the character towers over enemies. Segments in which players control Bruticus are designed to accommodate its larger size. For example, Jazz can fire a grappling hook to reach high or distant places, Optimus Prime can command the massive Metroplex, and the Combaticons have the ability to combine into the Decepticon Bruticus. Įvery character has been given their own unique ability. These are purchased through Teletran 1 kiosks found throughout the game. The weapon selection in Fall of Cybertron is expanded, with new weapons that can take on very significant upgrades, including one that allows a weapon to fire up to 75% faster. The player character has both a regenerating shield and health, the latter of which can be replenished by a health pack.

Graphics and audio also received broadly positive comments. Gameplay was mostly praised, but some reviewers cited the removal of War for Cybertron 's cooperative campaign as a low point. Critics generally felt that the game was true to the Transformers franchise and provided good fan service, but some thought that the story pace slowed at times. Other actors return to reprise their roles from Transformers: War for Cybertron.įall of Cybertron received generally favorable reviews from critics. Some of the voice cast from the 1984 series The Transformers return to reprise their roles, including Peter Cullen as Autobot leader Optimus Prime and Gregg Berger as Grimlock.
