    You actually have two games in that image.

    The Switch (likely also coming to PC/PS4/XB1) project looks to be developed by Coatsink and published by Outright Games. Doom of Cybertron seems to be a separate VR title produced by Robocom and published by DMG Entertainment.

    okay so this is all the usual corporate deck bullshit but

    1: damn, they\'re really going hard on the eOne acquisition - this is the counterbalance to \"Disney buying Hasbro\" isn\'t it? Hasbro just buying a production company (and getting Peppa Pig which is a license to print money)

    2: BALDUR\'S GATE III HOLY SHIT I\'M CRYING PLEASE DO NOT FUCK IT UP

    Hm.

    A new console release announced for Switch by a small studio, as well as a VR title. Could turn out to be alright, or just shovelware. Curious to see more.

    Is it just me or does slide 156, which notes the royalties from streaming shows Hasbro will be receiving in 2020 and 2021, also confirm (or at least suggest) another season of War for Cybertron on Netflix?

    Extremely likely, there is a lot of press coverage at this event and Hasbro is going to want all the exposure for their new show they can get. Their big push is probably going to be Scorponok, The EarthRise reveals, and the War for Cybertron (series).

    I know it ain't Transformers but I just want to say is that I'm amazed how much of a beast MtG is. I got out of the game about a decade ago, and the game has been almost as long as I've been alive. I thought interest would've faded long ago but damn it's still going strong.

    So does this mean the people who come up with new ideas for Transformers characters and tell the stories work at eOne? Or they just produce the media?

    I wouldn't disregard it just yet. A video game doesn't need to be some kind of mature photorealitsic thing aimed at adult fans to be good. Heck, we already got that with the WFC games. This could be something along the lines of a Lego Star Wars game or a Mario game. Maybe it has a lot of clever puzzles or is more adventure based or something. It could be fun.

    (Plus, there seem to be two games. One for the Switch, the other seems to be more adult-oriented, at least judging by the font.)
