Activision has officially announced that Transformers: War for Cybertron is in development from High Moon Studios for the xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, Wii and DS. Based on Hasbro’s Transformers property, the game takes players to the home planet of Cybertron for a new look into the epic story of the grand civil war that spawned one of the most brutal rivalries of all time.

For the first time in a Transformers title, fans will be able to play the game with their friends through team-based online co-op, or go head to head in a variety of intense, online multiplayer game modes.

The game features a sci-fi art style that introduces to fans the entire living, metallic world of Cybertron, as well as all-new visualizations of the iconic Transformers characters in their original Cybertronian forms.
