High Moon Studios' new third-person action game bumped up to August 21 for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC.
Transformers: Fall of Cybertron will make an appearance earlier than expected. A new trailer (embedded below) for High Moon Studios' third-person shooter reveals the game will be out on August 21 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. Previously, the game was scheduled to arrive August 28.
A follow-up to 2010's War for Cybertron, Fall of Cybertron takes players through the final hours of the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons as they battle for dominion over their fading planet.
Fall of Cybertron will not include its predecessor's cooperative component, but High Moon is beefing up the game's multiplayer mode. In this mode, players will be able to customize their characters' parts and color schemes, allowing them to create unique Autobots and Decepticons.

i call bull shit on this one the last one on pc never came out in australia never will this one
this looks EPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC gonna get for sure :) :) :) hhhhh Im a also a prime check my user name
Hmmm ,Despite all the hype I'm a bit of a "Pessimist Prime" about this title, have to wait and see.
@Caldrin The last game was pretty good. at least it's better then the ones based on Micheal Bay's three movies.
Actually TF1 and TF2 movie games were kinds nice in my opinion. Especially because of the free roaming and the cool unblockables.
If you don't mind, I was expressing MY opinion. I liked the option of freeroaming in a big city as any Transformer I like. The missions were also enjoyable, comparing to other shitty movie based games I played. Not saying they're better than WFC and FOC though.
@Bumblebee1138 No they weren't. They were absolutely terrible. This and WFC are two TRUE Transformers video games
lol my birthday is on september 2nd was going tro get the misus to buy it for me for my bday but guess i will have to get it earlier
Oh man it's going to come out earlier now that's cool and that suck that their will be no Co-op this time around, but that's alright I'm going to own it anyway as I do have it pre-ordered.
3 Like Optimus Prime: One game shall be purchased...
Megatron: And one game shall be left on the shelf....
4 Like Well this spices things up and unique autobots and decepticons sounds great if they don't cheap out the details.
1 Like So transformers,dark souls,darksiders 2 and sleeping dogs all out on the same day..... now i have a problem
