The relic empowers those who hold it to bend the fabric of the universe and inhabitants to his will, so soon becomes a cause for concern.Īt the close of the opening chapter, you’ll transition back in time to Cybertron – the ruined homeworld that the Transformers once peacefully inhabited. That will initially see you battle through Earth’s rugged terrain as you seek to prevent Lockdown’s schemes to harness the power of the Dark Spark, an ancient relic that is claimed to be as equally powerful as the Matrix of Leadership.
Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark unnecessarily divides its narrative in two, mainly fuelled by the desire to place you in control of as many Autobots and Decepticons in the eight-hour campaign as possible. The result is a rather dull experience that feels more clinical by design than revelling in the source material that it is driven by. Transformers, shortly set to return to cinemas this summer with Michael Bay’s Age of Extinction, is one such culprit.Īfter the faithful stewardship that High Moon Studios lent to converting Hasbro’s creation into pixel form, Activision now turns to Texas outfit Edge of Reality to their own take on robotic warfare. It must be an emotional one-two punch of elation and imminent dread when a studio discovers that they have been allowed to work on a licensed multi-billion dollar franchise.
