I am sooo happy right now! War for Cybertron was one of the best games this gen and is one of my favorite games this gen and by far the best Transformers game, Fall Of Cybertron looks to be a major improvement. Must have of 2012. I can't wait! :D

MODS DO NOT LOCK. THESE ARE NOT SCANS, FROM OFFICIAL GAME INFORMER SITE ARTICLE.

November Cover Revealed: Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron

In 2010, High Moon Studios released War For Cybertron, finally giving Transformers fans a game worth getting excited about. Afterwards, the developer settled back and listened to what the fans wanted, going back to the drawing board to craft a new and improved follow-up.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron continues the story of the Autobots and the Decepticons and their bitter civil war, but changes and improves upon so many of the fundamental ideas that the developer considers the game a natural successor rather than a true sequel. We have over 12 pages of exclusive details on High Moon's new project, including extensive story and gameplay explanations, concept art, and dozens of screenshots. Whether you love the Transformers, or you just love hearing about the next great story-driven action game, Fall of Cybertron should be on your radar.

To celebrate the announcement of the new game, we're thrilled to reveal two stunning cover images. Our primary cover depicts Optimus Prime alongside a long-absent hero within the Transformers fiction. To view any of the images at an even larger size, either click on the image, or right click to view image.

Our second, limited-run cover reveals some of the darker tone High Moon Studios hopes to explore in Fall of Cybertron. Dangerous days are ahead for the heroic Autobots.

On top of our cover story, we'll be rolling out a a tremendous wealth of additional details throughout the month here on gameinformer.com. Check back every couple of days for more info and additional assets, many of which go above and beyond what you'll find in our print story. To begin exploring all our content, click on the banner below to visit our Transformers: Fall of Cybertron hub page, which will be updated as we add new features.

Beyond our exclusive look at Fall of Cybertron, the November issue of Game Informer has a visit to 343 Industries (the new stewards of the Halo franchise), a peek behind the curtain of one of gaming's biggest publishers in our uncensored history of Ubisoft, and brand new details on The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim through our extensive new hands-on feature. Plus, previews of Assassin's Creed Revelations, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and Twisted Metal deliver the latest must-read news. And just how good is Batman: Arkham City? Our full review is finally here.

All this and more is on the way to your mailbox in the coming days. If you read Game Informer Digital, look for the new issue to arrive in your inbox on October 11.

War for Cybertron was actually a pretty good game. Highly underrated especially by gamespot. I think it got like a 7 here or something and IGN gave it a 9. The multiplayer was pretty good but unfortunately the community died rather quick.

War for Cybetron was fun I guess, felt generic in some parts and all the grey got boring but it was fun. Hopefully this one has more variety.

I'm talking about how bad Dark of the Moon was overall. I'm assuming that was because short dev time and with this coming out next year it will be another short dev term.

But thanks for pointing out the obvious, I had no idea.

War for Cybertron was pretty fun. To me, there was two issues with the game: 1) Ammo in single player was a pain. Its fine if your co-oping it (which is awesome how they set that up), but alone your AI buddies arent enough help. They basically dont do anything but draw some enemy fire. Your Ammo will run down quick because you have to do everything lol. Ammo management dominates the experience and keeps you from enjoying it as much as you should. 2) Online got old too quick. There isnt enough variety of upgrades and ranks. The game launched with a paltry number of maps. Its definitely a fun game, but just not enough content to keep me interested after a month or two. I give it an 8 overall. If they improve these areas for Fall of Cybertron, then it should be an excellent game.

I think highhmoon/activision should take the risk of making the next transformer in first person view but when transform to vehicle then it back to 3rd view. first person view should be interesting so we can have a better experience behind the metal armor. also add more colors to the game. Honestly the lack of color did got dull after a week of gametime. Include level up, killstreaks, perks I dont mind. Allow players to play as human and hopping in the seat of teammates transformed cars would be so rad. If that is in the next sequal I will buy it for sure

Turns out it has more colors. It's been confirmed already there will be a huge upgrade in graphics. Someone played it at PAX behind closed doors and said graphics are already superior to WFC and it's only Alpha.

I'll be really happy if Soundwave can actually use Rumble, Frenzy, and Laserbeak in gameplay this time around.

Only in Beast Wars. In the original series from 1980's there was an Autobot named Grimlock who led a team called the Dinobots and, as their name suggests, all of them could transform into robotic dinosaurs.

Speaking of transformers. Why did bay make all the autobots look similar to the originals but then none of the decepticons look like they usually look like? And their all silver. Makes my inner child sad
