London, ENG (September 5, 2024) – Outright Games, the leading publisher of family-friendly interactive entertainment, in collaboration with Hasbro, a leading toy and game company, is excited to reveal a brand-new character reveal trailer for the upcoming video game, TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials. TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials finds players on a mission to recover the powerful Prime Relics from the evil Nemesis Prime in this fast-paced rogue-lite racing game, inspired by the iconic TRANSFORMERS franchise, and developed by 3DClouds.
The new trailer showcases all 11 playable characters including Autobots Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Elita-1, Wheeljack, and Arcee, along with Decepticons Megatron, Shockwave, Flamewar, Soundwave, Nightbird, and Nemesis Prime. Fans will begin the game playing as iconic characters Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Megatron, and will unlock additional characters as they progress.

TRANSFORMERS: Galactic Trials finds the Autobots and Decepticons on an important mission to recover the Prime Relics, which grants significant power to those who hold them and have been stolen by Nemesis Prime. Battling and racing their way through the single-player Galactic Trials game mode, players will uncover relics to enhance their speed, damage, and handling. To shift gears and test their driving skills against a friend, TRANSFORMERS fans can compete in the game’s Arcade Mode equipped with local multiplayer for up to two people.
