In case you’ve been living under a rock in order to escape rising levels of Bayhem, there’s a new Transfomers movie on the way. Age of Extinction is it’s name, and this may be the best film yet, which I’m judging solely on the fact that it’s 100% Shia LaBeouf-free. And of course, there’ll be a game to go with it. A game, which has multiple Optimus Primes in it.
Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark won’t just include the Optimus Prime from the Michael Bay movies and the Autobot leader from the Transformers: Cybertron universe. It’ll also include a G1 version of the robot formerly known as Orion Pax, but as usual, there’s a catch.
Original Prime will only be available in the Escalation mode of the game. Enh, I’ll take what I can get. Here’s the official character sheets from Activision:
Personally, I always dug the Transformers Prime Optimus. Give me a version of that before a nerd with an Autobot tattoo yells at me that the Prime and Cybertron characters are technically the same robots in disguise.
Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark will be triple-changing on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii U, PC and 3DS later this year.

Must be an error on the article.
Who would be silly enough to release a game on all platforms?

To be honest, I’m not digging optimus’ new design. But I suppose I’ll get used to it over time like all the rest. Hopefully the multiplayer is like it was in fall of cybertron.
