Outright Games, the premier publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in collaboration with renowned toy and game company Hasbro, proudly announces the upcoming release of TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials. This highly anticipated video game, developed by 3DClouds, promises a thrilling blend of arcade racing and robot combat, set within the iconic TRANSFORMERS universe. Mark your calendars for the release date: October 11, 2024, available on PlayStation 4®, PlayStation 5®, Nintendo Switch™, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam.
In TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials, players embark on an epic quest to recover the stolen Prime Relics. The notorious NEMESIS PRIME has seized these powerful artefacts, and it’s up to the AUTOBOTS and DECEPTICONS to retrieve them. Fans can choose to play as beloved characters like Bumblebee, Megatron, Elita-1, and Optimus Prime, racing through dynamic circuits and engaging in intense robot combat to defeat enemies and claim victory.
The game features a compelling mix of traditional arcade racing and combat mechanics, allowing players to switch between vehicle and robot forms. As they collect new relics, players can level up their skills and unlock new characters and skins. Two game modes enhance the experience: the single-player Galactic Trials mode for level progression and relic collection, and the Arcade mode for a customizable racing experience, including 2-player local multiplayer and specialized tournaments.
Stephanie Malham, Managing Director of Outright Games, expressed her enthusiasm: “It has been a pleasure to continue our collaboration with Hasbro and return to the world of TRANSFORMERS. With 2024 marking the 40th anniversary of this iconic IP, we are very excited to be releasing the first-ever console racing video game in the franchise’s history.
