Latest Transformers: Devastation Trailer Gives Us a Healthy Dose of Generation 1 Goodness

by Tony Polanco1

As far as I’m concerned, the only Transformers that matter are the ones from the early 80’s or “Generation 1.” A lot of fans feel this way too and it seems Platinum Games is giving us exactly what we want with their upcoming Transformers: Devastation.

This trailer features the Autobots and Decepticons doing what they do best: beating the holy hell out of each other. This is Platinum Games so it’s not surprising to see that the title is heavily about melee combat and combos. Best of all however is the art-style which is inspired by the original animated series. Everything from the look, sound effects, and voices are authentic to the REAL Transformers.

Transformers: Devastation will be released on PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One later this year.
