Leaked gameplay footage of the canceled Transformers: Reactivate has re-emerged online. Announced in 2022 by Splash Damage in collaboration with Hasbro, the co-op game was to feature Generation 1 Autobots and Decepticons uniting against an alien threat. However, development ceased, leading to the project's cancellation and potential layoffs.
Recently surfaced footage, from a 2020 build, showcases Bumblebee navigating a destroyed city, seamlessly transforming between robot and vehicle modes, and utilizing various weapons. The gameplay bears resemblance to Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, but pits Bumblebee against "the Legion," the game's intended alien antagonists.
Despite some unfinished textures, the leaked footage presents a polished look, including environmental destruction. A silent cutscene depicts Bumblebee emerging from a portal near the ruins of New York City, communicating with an ally named Devin. Numerous other leaks from 2020 predate the game's official announcement and cancellation. While the game itself is unavailable, the leaks offer a glimpse into Splash Damage's vision for this ambitious, yet ultimately unsuccessful, Transformers title.
