Here is an overview of the game, via Splash Damage:

Transformers: Reactivate is a one-to-four player online action game, being developed in collaboration with Hasbro, Inc. This PC and console cooperative game will offer players an opportunity to explore a fresh, new story within the Transformres universe.

The gravest threat to humanity has arrived. And it’s already won. Earth is no longer ours; it belongs to them. All we have left is our hope for the Autobots, as we salvage them from the rubble left behind.

Transformers: Reactivate will offer players a chance to immerse themselves in the Transformers universe like never before. They will get to play as some of their favorite characters; unique, weighty, and powerful, seamlessly converting between vehicle and bot form as they battle The Legion; the greatest threat the Autobots have ever faced.

Transformers: Reactivate marks a new era for Splash Damage and is being developed and published exclusively by the London-based group. As part of this new era, Splash Damage recently acquired BULKHEAD and have been developing Transformers: Reactivate in collaboration with the Derby-based studio. The 500-plus people strong development and publishing teams at Splash Damage and BULKHEAD are expanding rapidly and Transformers: Reactivate is one of several original titles currently in development at the studios.

“Fans have been eagerly awaiting a new game that immerses them into our iconic Transformers universe,” said Hasbo senior vice president of business development and digital licensing Eugene Evans in a press release. “We’re thrilled to share a first look on one of gaming’s biggest nights. Splash Damage has an amazing track record with some of the world’s most famous IPs and have a strong creative passion for the Transformers brand. We’re confident that Transformers: Reactivate will be hugely popular with the Transformers community and continues the Hasbro Blueprint 2.0 strategy of creating first-class branded entertainment across diverse categories and platforms including video games.”
