Robo then discusses what players may anticipate from the game’s plot, which he claims will centre in some way on Unicron. According to him, Certain Affinity’s first pitch called for Unicron to be the main antagonist and a significant raid boss, but balance concerns owing to Unicron’s huge size caused the company to “sideline” the villain. Robo adds that it is unclear if the allegedly completed game still includes Unicron or whether the planet-sized robot may emerge in a hypothetical expansion.
The last piece of information Robo discusses are two reportedly leaked Transformers: Rise sequences. The Autobot Ratchet and the Decepticon Shockwave are believed to appear in one sequence, while Starscream and Optimus Prime are said to appear in the other. Robo emphasises that the prospective cutscenes are still in the works and do not include any of the franchise’s usual voice cast members, such as Peter Cullen.
