Exclusive to Xbox 360 owners, the demo will grant players early access to a deep Transformers multiplayer experience, offering fans a sample of some of the character classes and game modes that will be found in the final version. It will feature full, 10-player matches and drop players straight into Molten, one of the game’s expansive maps set on the Transformers’ home planet of Cybertron.
Players will have access to the Scout and Soldier character classes and be able to experience upgrading and leveling up their Transformer to unlock weapons and abilities. Fans will compete with each other in two of the game’s adrenaline-pumping multiplayer modes:
* Team Deathmatch – A classic game mode that pits Autobots vs. Decepticons directly against one another in blistering head-to-head battle
* Conquest – An intense team-based mode that challenges each squad to control various power nodes on the map to earn points to achieve victory
