Platinum Games, developer of the beloved Bayonetta series and Vanquish, is working on a Gen 1 cel-shaded Transformers action game called Transformers Devastation.

Published by Activision, the game will allow you to play as five Transformers in the battle against the Decepticons – Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Sideswipe, Wheeljack, and Grimlock.

The game was outed by US retailer Best Buy, but was quickly taken down, but not before a NeoGAF user nabbed the posting.

“Face off against Megatron and battle it out with the Decepticons in Transformers Devestation,” the post reads. “Equipped with fast action capabilities, this game allows for instant robot to vehicle attacks, slam downs, counterattacks, and infinite combos for a unique master combat system. Five difficulty levels also deliver hours of intense gameplay.”

It continues “Autobots face off against the Decepticons when Megatron discovers a way to harness the enormous power of plasma energy to cyberform Earth.”

“Platinum Games’ signature fast action allows instant robot to vehicle attacks, slam downs, counterattacks, and infinite combos for a unique master combat system.”

The product advertisement also states that voice actors from the original series, including Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime), Dan Gilvezan (Bumblebee) and Frank Welker (Megatron and Soundwave) will be reprising their roles for the game.

A series of screens were also leaked via PureXbox.
