“It has been a pleasure to continue our collaboration with Hasbro and return to the world of Transformers,” said Outright Games marketing director Stephanie Malham. “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. With the inclusion of rogue-lite elements, Transformers: Galactic Trials‘ gameplay complements the dynamic Transformers robots.”
The game will combine traditional arcade racing in vehicle form and dynamic combat in robot form, as players will be tasked with both reaching the finish line and defeating enemies on the way.
“As Transformers celebrates its 40th year alongside the theatrical premiere of its first fully CG-animated film, Transformers One, we are proud to continue our collaboration with Outright Games to unveil an epic journey that speaks to the enduring legacy of the iconic brand,” said Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro senior vice president of digital strategy and licensing Eugene Evans.
“With immersive gameplay, and a storyline that resonates with fans old and new, Transformers: Galactic Trials is sure to ignite excitement. Through this all-new Transformers racing experience, we continue to expand our digital offerings through strategic licensing and internal development and we can’t wait for Transformers fans to see what else we have in store.”
Transformers: Galactic Trials will be released for PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam on October 11.
