Transformers Game Footage Emerges Despite Cancellation

by Allison Feb 14,2025

Leaked gameplay footage of the canceled Transformers: Reactivate has re-emerged online. Originally announced in 2022 by Splash Damage in collaboration with Hasbro, the co-op game pitted Autobots and Decepticons against an alien threat, "the Legion." Development was plagued by secrecy, with only occasional leaks and related merchandise surfacing before its cancellation.

Recent resurfaced footage, from a 2020 build, showcases Bumblebee navigating a destroyed cityscape, seamlessly transforming between robot and vehicle modes while engaging the Legion. The gameplay bears resemblance to Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, but with a distinct alien enemy.

Despite some unfinished textures, the leaked footage reveals a polished game with environmental destruction. A silent cutscene shows Bumblebee emerging from a portal in New York City, communicating with an ally named Devin about the Legion's assault. Numerous other leaks from 2020 further illustrate the game's development, offering a glimpse into a project that ultimately failed to launch. While the game itself remains unplayable, the leaks provide a look at Splash Damage's vision for a promising, albeit cancelled, Transformers multiplayer experience.
