Outright Games and Hasbro have announced a new video game in the Transformers franchise, titled Transformers: Galactic Trials. The game is a hybrid of action-packed racing and rogue-lite combat elements, and will be released on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam on October 11, 2024.

Players can choose to play as iconic Autobots or Decepticons, including Bumblebee, Megatron, Elita-1, and Optimus Prime, and race across battle-race circuits to collect relics and beat opponents. The gameplay incorporates both traditional arcade racing in vehicle form and dynamic combat in bot-form, as players must defeat enemies and make it to the finish line.

As players progress and collect new relics, they will level up their skills and unlock new iconic playable characters and skins. Two game modes are available; play Galactic Trials to progress through levels and collect relics in single-player mode. In Arcade mode, grab a friend with 2-player, local multiplayer and enter a quick race, creating a custom racing experience with your track, character and weapons, or enter location-based specialised tournaments.

The game is being developed by 3DClouds and is based on the iconic Transformers brand. It will be the first ever console racing video game in the franchise’s history and will be released during the 40th anniversary of the Transformers franchise, which has produced over 10 feature films and countless video games.

Outright Games is a global video games publisher with a focus on bringing quality family entertainment to a worldwide audience, and has previously released games based on popular licenses such as Peppa Pig, DC’s Justice League, Star Trek, Paw Patrol, and DreamWorks Dragons. 3DClouds is an Italian video game developer that has previously released games such as All-Star Fruit Racing, Xenon Racer, Race With Ryan, and Carrumble.
