Fire dimension
The fire dimension (also Megatron's dimension) is a pocket dimension used as a base of operations by Megatron and the Decepticons during the search for the Cyber Planet Keys. Quite literally a world of nothing but fire and rock, the Decepticons use it as a means of traversing space and time without having to rely on space bridges, employing dimension gates that cut through this fiery realm. These gates could be forced closed if the flames surrounding them were extinguished.<ref>"Critical"</ref>

Following the Omega Lock and three of the Cyber Planet Keys being brought to Cybertron, Optimus Prime pursued Megatron into the fire dimension and fought him to a standstill. The clash of energies opened a warp gate back to Cybertron that Optimus passed through, before ordering Vector Prime to use his sword to create another warp gate atop it. Though the dimensional forces sealed off the fire dimension, Megatron used the full power of the Armor of Unicron to physically rip open reality and create a path back to Cybertron.
