Your Exclusive First Look at Transformers Universe

Transformers Universe has been completely reimagined and shown off for the first time in an exclusive new trailer.

Previously planned to be an MMO, Transformers Universe has now been reimagined as a massively online tactical action game, or MOTA, boasting "fast-paced, battle centric, tactical action". A selection of gameplay modes will be available in a bid to ensure casual and hardcore Transformers enthusiasts alike are catered for.

Though the game is targeted to release summer 2014, we've managed to get a first peak at the game. Check out the exclusive debut trailer below.

In Transformers Universe, you'll be the Commander of a new squad. In this role, you'll recruit, maintain and battle others using unique Transformers created by Jagex and Hasbro. The Bots under your command will be faction-aligned and offer unique play styles, weapons, augments and specialities.

The Autobots vs Decepticons feud is alive and kicking, and you'll be teaming up with and fighting against other Commanders along faction lines. Legendary heroes and villains will be making special appearances from time to time, although more is planned to be revealed on that front at a later date.

We'll have much more on Transformers Universe in the coming months. Anyone interested in participating in the beta should register their interest now.
