Transformers: Fall of Cybertron now Available on Xbox One and PS4 in Australia

Oh cool, hope it comes to the UK soon.
... I say, with neither an Xbone or a PS4.

Its definitely an awesome game even though the ending does leave it a bit open ended (but that's okay). Glad it's becoming available on backwards compatibility on newer consoles. I'll most likely cling to my PC for gaming though. I'm actually replaying the campaign at the moment to get all the extras since last time I just kind of charged through it all the way.

At its time it was the best tf game available and enjoyed it especially the story and certain atmosphere created on cybertron.

I wouldn't spend the money getting it fore the ps4 like I've done in the past for naughty dog games getting ported over... However for those who haven't played it it's worth checking out. Tho I recall foc being a bit buggy in certain parts.

My favourite game remains devastation short as it was, it was more fun.

Personally I prefer WFC and FOC over other TF games myself. Just the ending of FoC was very open-ended while we do know the end result, it just was a bit of a let down in regards to that for me. Makes it feel incomplete in a way. FoC was fine for me on the PC, but I did play both of them on PC anyways. WFC was a bit buggy though, but wasn't as bad as say anything game breaking. I do prefer FoC's multiplayer over WFC actually. The customization is the best part.

I heard good things about Devastation, but yeah the central complaint was that it's short. I might try to go for it next and see how I do. I just want to be able to play as a Decepticon.

Some unfortunate news has been floating around the interwebs today regarding the Activision Transformers video games War For Cybertron, Fall of Cybertron, Devastation, and Rise of the Dark Spark. It seems that all of these titles have been removed from both the Steam store and the Play Station store. It's currently up to speculation as to why, and if they will return to the stores any time soon. Reports also indicate that the DLCs for the various games are also unavailable, but the games are available for purchase and download on both the XBox and Nintendo stores.

Obviously, physical copies are still available and installable.

If there are any updates to this story, (which there most likely will be), you'll hear about it here, on Seibertron.com!

Im not suprised the alignment continuity is over wfc foc since 2 months ago since rid freedom fighters episode ended

Guess Activision don't have the TF license anymore? I'm assuming that the games still exist on the servers for those who already bought them to redownload? That's the way it was with the X-Men and Simpsons arcade games Konami re-released on PS3 and XBox before removing them from purchase some time later? I have Devastation and Dark Spark and they were the only two I liked anyways (didn't actually play FoC but had WfC on my PS3 back when i used to buy discs on release day and completed it and hated it and sold it within one week).

I'd pick it up as soon as possible before the price rises.

Is the DLC for Fall of Cybertron still up on the xbox one store.

As we reported back before the end of the year (see the story here), Activision Transformers videogames War For Cybertron, Fall of Cybertron, Devastation, and Rise of the Dark Spark have been removed from multiple platform stores, such as Steam, XBox, and PlayStation.

Thanks to fellow Seibetronian Sunstar, we have now confirmation of the actual reason for the removal of the games, and it is exactly what numerous readers and players have suggested: the contract between Hasbro and Activision has expired. IGN has more information on the story, as you can read below, and you can follow this link for a longer piece hammering the point.

Hasbro confirmed to IGN its contract with Activision to publish Transformers games has expired. However, Hasbro is not at this time discussing what, if any, plans it might have for Transformers games on PC and consoles in the future. Multiple mobile games, including Transformers: Forged to Fight, are still ongoing, however.

IGN has reached out to Activision for more details about the contract expiration and will update this story should they respond.

It doesn't come as much of a surprise, though I wonder who they'll grant the licence to now? Personally I would love to see a tactical game like the super robot wars/Fire Emblem/Advance Wars/ Valkryia Chronicles games. Handheld or switch, I'm easy
