Check the Trailer for Netflix’s Transformers: War for Cybertron!

Netflix has released the first trailer for Transformers: War for Cybertron: Siege, the first in a planned trilogy from the streaming platform featuring everyone’s favorite intergalactic robots. The series boasts a new animation look and style that presents the shape-shifting robots as you’ve never seen them before. Though, we’re not sure how long you’ll have to wait to see this as no release date was specified. You can check out the trailer in the player below!

Here’s the synopsis, via JoBloTRANSFORMERS: WAR FOR CYBERTRON TRILOGY: SIEGE begins in the final hours of the devastating civil war between the Autobots and Decepticons. The war that has torn apart their home planet of Cybertron is at a tipping point. Two leaders, Optimus Prime and Megatron, both want to save their world and unify their people, but only on their own terms. In an attempt to end the conflict, Megatron is forced to consider using the Allspark, the source of all life and power on Cybertron, to “reformat” the Autobots, thus “unifying” Cybertron. Outnumbered, outgunned, and under SIEGE, the battle-weary Autobots orchestrate a desperate series of counterstrikes on a mission that, if everything somehow goes right, will end with an unthinkable choice: kill their planet in order to save it.

There’s the stand-alone series Transformers: Cyberverse, which currently airs on the Cartoon Network, the upcoming Prime Wars trilogy, featuring Mark Hamill and Ron Perlman, and the most recent big-screen adventure, Bumblebee, seems to have endeared audiences with its re-approach to the franchise.
