    Them bringing character designers on-board doesn’t always mean that they just started development, they could be hiring more staff for post-release content. I do think that development is not going as smoothly as they let on though.

    So, is the general consensus that this is going to basically be a Fortnite clone with Transformer skins?

    How similar this game will be to a game like Fortnite has yet to be seen or confirmed. There have been no mention of Battle Royale anywhere over the years of its development.

    If you ask me though, I personally think it’ll be more in line with Warframe or even Destiny.

    Leyou Technologies has just announced their 2020 interim results. Regarding their upcoming products and the Transformers game itself:

    New Products in the Pipeline Concurrent with persisent quality updates and optimisation of its live games, the Group also attaches great importance to the development of new products. By either creating original intellectual property (IP) or working with globally renowned ones, the group has successfully created a number of new games, including TRANSFORMERS, Civilization Online, Endless World, and multiple unannounced new F2P game products in various development stages. Endless World has received nearly 80% positive review scores from players and was nominated for a 2019 Game of the Year Award (New Release) on Steam. During the reporting period, Idle Big Devil, a F2P idle role-playing game, was newly launched. Although it is still in its early access stage with continuous optimisation, it has achieved a nearly 90% positive review score from players. The investment in developing casual / mid-core games will speed up the launch timeline of the Group's new games, and will reduce the return cycle of research and development investment, enabling the Group to generate new revenue streams and profit growth.

    In addition to the continual premium updates and improvements to its live games, Leyou Technologies also keeps on investing in the development of new products, such as Civilization Online, TRANSFORMERS and The Lord of the Rings.

    In 2017, the Group entered into a license agreement with Hasbro Inc. and Hasbro International Inc. (collectively referred as “Hasbro”), and started to develop the game TRANSFORMERS alongside with renowned game developer, Certain Affinity. During the Reporting Period, Certain Affinity completed a development agreement totalling US$33 million and submitted a satisfactory beta version. Based on this, the Group has decided to grant a further development funding of US$10 million to Certain Affinity and signed a new supplementary agreement on 6 July 2020. The Group has also invited Splash Damage to join the development of this project. With its proven track record in delivering large scale projects, Splash Damage’s involvement will reduce risk and provides the live operation experience to
    properly manage the game long term.

    Most importantly, Splash Damage will join Certain Affinity on the development of the game.

    There’s no denying that. But I don’t think they’ll start revealing anything until they make a public announcement or teaser of the game. It would be weird to show an Optimus Prime concept design before they even reveal what they’re working on

    If anything I have little hope that they show it next week during gamescom but anything can happen from now to gamescom since that's the next game event I can think of.

    The hype is real! Knowing how big Gamescom is this could be a big opportunity for Certain Affinity to reveal their game. Time to get some popcorn everyone and prepare for the event! Let's see what happens

    Don't get too excited, you are most likely not going to see an announcement for Gamescom. I would love to be surprised, but right now I am 95% sure we are going to be waiting for a while.

    According to Gamecom's roster though. It doesn't look like Certain Affinity is attending Gamescom. 6B237C36-7626-4A01-A4EA-A0CC49798F8A.jpeg
