Developer High Moon Studios and publisher Activision have delivered yet another launch trailer for the upcoming Transformers: Fall of Cybertron.

The new game is not linked to a movie in the franchise and that means the development team has a lot of freedom when it comes to creating a new story that uses the rich history of the franchise, including the Dynobots that have not yet been featured in any other media.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron will have a revamped shooter system and more options included for the development of each of the playable characters.

Transformers: Fall of Cybertron will be launched on the PC, the Xbox 360 from Microsoft and the PlayStation 3 from Sony on August 21 in the United States and August 24 in Europe.

On the Sony home console, gamers will be able to get the exact same product via digital distribution on launch day, something that publishers have so far been unwilling to offer.
