    Oh my my... Megatron's looking very Prime-y. I hope they put up the artwork, like they did with WFC.

    This just keeps getting better.

    Iiinteresting. That's not the Ark, that's the remains of Trypticon.

    And the Nemesis definitely has Trypticon influences. Maybe the Autobots are transporting his remains to use him to bring a different City former online, only for the Decepticons to steal it back?

    Why are you assuming the Nemisis is Trypticon?

    It has yellow eyes like Trypticon did, and the yellow plating on top of his head. Could be coincidence, but it feels too intentional.

    I don't think the Transport is carrying Trypticon's remains so much as Trypticon's remains are sitting in the backdrop to provide a sense of scale.

    I'm partially curious if that transport's just an alt mode for someone else though...

    And, even though it is a divergent storyline but within the new Aligned Continuity, in Exodus, Trypticon actually transforms into the Nemesis, IIRC.

    Here's what I think might happen

    1. The game begins with a Decepticon attack on the Ark launchbase.
    2. The Matrix summons Metroplex to the Autobots aid and he sends the bad guys packing.
    3. The Ark was damaged during the battle so the Autobots head into the Cybertronian underworld to retrieve Trypticon to use as parts - Metroplex transforms into a 'large transport' to carry him (a nod to Animated Omega Supreme - a character revealed right under fans noses).
    4. It was Megatrons plan all along for this to happen - once Trypticon is inside the Autobots base, the Dark Energon revives him and he wreaks havoc, and the Decepticons attack AGAIN during this time.
    5. In the games final scenes, Metroplex and Trypticon are both killed battling each other. Seeing the battle is now unwinnable, the Autobots are forced to flee in a semi-operational Ark. As they try to escape, Megatron once again uses Dark Energon to form the Nemesis from Trypticons remains, and the Decepticons chase them into space.

    Given the size and colour of that Autobot transport, it has to be Metroplex, IMO and I agree the Decepticon ship is probably Trypticon too.

    edit: Just noticed the stuff on the back..that has to be Trypticon being carried.

    Yeah, that's definately trypticon's arm being carried on the back of that thing.

    I don't see the resemblance between Metroplex and the transport thing.
    Also, while I agree the Nemesis looks like Trypticon, remember that this is concept art, and the Nemesis might not look like that in the game itself.

    It's white, and the front looks like it could be Metroplex' chest. It has some similarities to Cybertron Metroplex as well, which I could see High Moon slipping in. Could be a coincidence, but we know he's in, and the resemblances are there.

    If the 'Cons are gonna have a combiner in the game, then the 'Bots would need a combiner of their own to even the playing field. Namely Superion (Aerialbots)

    i completely agree with you. but considering grimlock's size compared to shockwave, there's no way they're gonna be paired up in a fight. so IF superion doesn't happen it's probably going to be grimlock vs. bruticus

    I'd think if Bruticus has a rival Gestalt it will be Defensor, as the Protectobots were the Combaticons G1 rivals, and as the Autobots are trying to evacuate Cybertron it makes sense to deploy a team specialising in protection and preservation. Problem members would be Streetwise and Groove, who as a Car and Motorcycle respectively (the latter also being a completely new chassis) may be too small to combine with, though they could form Defensors arms.

    I wonder if Jetfire, Silverbolt, and Air Raid are gonna be in Fall Of Cybertron. As well as the other Dinobots besides Grimlock.
