DeNA and Hasbro have again partnered to release a Transformer game, having already put a card battle game and an endless runner game on the app markets. Transformers: Battle Tactics is a turn based tactical combat which is inspired by the all new fan favorite Combiner Wars comic story and the expansive 30-year history of the Transformers generations universe. Players will collect and assemble epic teams, made up of Autobots and Decepticons who will fight side by side in a unique campaign mode and intense player vs player (PvP) mode to engage with gamers and Transformers fans from around the world.
“Transformers: Battle Tactics celebrates the rich lore and character universe of Transformers Generations and the Combiner Wars story, adding a new twist on their visual styling,” said Hasbro, SVP business development & digital gaming, Mark Blecher.
Players will be able to manage an army of up to four Transformers onto the battlefield where they can unleash their abilities and take their alternate forms to take-out their opponents. By leveling up Transformers characters and linking multiple ones together players can unlock powerful Combiners and inflict critical damage to change the tide of the battle.
“The fun and calculated turn-based gameplay, diverse characters and abilities and deep leveling and combo system in Transformers: Battle Tactics will give players the hundreds of options to make their team more powerful and keep the competition fierce,” said, DeNA, VP of partnerships and alliances, Barry Dorf.
Transformers: Battle Tactics features over 75 legendary characters including Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Bumblebee and Combiner Centuritron. Transformers: Battle Tactics will feature online PvP leaderboards where the top players will receive in-game prizes, valuable resources and limited-time competitive modes. Friends and players will be able to connect to form Leagues and earn an edge over their competition. Transformers: Battle Tactics is now available as a free download on the App Store for iPhone and iPad and on Google Play for Android devices.
