Prepare for Battle (website)
Prepare for Battle was the official website of Transformers: The Ride – 3D, which was advertised in trailers for the ride. The site provided details on the ride, as well as behind-the-scenes videos, downloads, and a game where players could potentially win real prizes.
The site was deactivated in June 2014.
