'''''Transformers: Cyberverse''''' is a [[computer-generated imagery|computer-animated]] series developed by [[Boulder Media Studio]]. It debuted on the [[Cartoon Network]] app and website on [[August 27]], [[2018]], and made its television premiere on Cartoon Network on September 1, 2018. The story is divided into chapters: Chapter One ran for 18 episodes in 2018, while a second chapter is targeted for a late [[2019]] release. Unlike nearly every prior ''Transformers'' TV series, episodes will be only 11 minutes in length as opposed to 22 minutes.

The series focuses on the adventures of [[Bumblebee (Cyberverse)|Bumblebee]]; having damaged his memory chips, he and [[Windblade (Cyberverse)|Windblade]] must recover his missing memories in order to help him remember his mission on [[Earth]]. Unfortunately, the [[Decepticon]]s are after their friends.<ref>[http://comicbook.com/2017/10/14/transformers-cyberverse-animated-first-look/ Exclusive: Your First Look At The New Transformers: Cyberverse Animated Series]</ref>

The series is intended to "focus more on characters and their mythology" and utilizes the "[[evergreen]]" character designs. It is set in a new continuity and is not a sequel to any previous series.

==Storyline==
During the war on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], [[Optimus Prime (Cyberverse)|Optimus Prime]] and a team including Bumblebee have left the planet to search for the [[AllSpark]]. The [[Decepticon]]s catch wind that the ancient artifact is on [[Earth]], and leave to investigate, which forces Windblade to take a one-way [[space bridge]] journey there herself. Unable to find any trace of the [[Ark (Cyberverse)|Ark]] or Optimus Prime, she manages to find her old friend Bumblebee. However, he is suffering from amnesia and has no recollection of who he is or how he got there. With the pair being pursued relentlessly by Decepticons, Windblade must help Bumblebee unlock and repair his damaged memories of the war and his journey to Earth so that they can locate Optimus and the AllSpark before their enemies do.

==Notes==
*''Cyberverse'' draws some concepts from the ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'' film, released a few months after ''Cyberverse'' debuted; in particular, the plot point of Bumblebee's amnesia is lifted directly from the film, as is the "honeycomb" design of Bumblebee's internal readouts.
*The show's premiere episodes, "[[Fractured]]" and "[[Memory (Cyberverse)|Memory]]," were both put up on Cartoon Network's mobile app and website several days before their U.S. television premiere. All subsequent episodes of the show were uploaded the day before they were aired on television, followed by a release on Hasbro's YouTube channel the day after, region-locked to United States users; following a weekend without any videos due to American Thanksgiving, the YouTube release moved to the ''next'' Sunday after airing starting with episode 13. Cartoon Network's app/website split each episode into two separate parts, each with a generic title card, and were numbered as such.
*While the first season was aired at a rate of one episode per week in the United States, in Canada, ''two'' episodes aired every week in a half-hour block. Consequently, "[[Megatron Is My Hero]]" through "[[Maccadam's]]" all premiered on Canadian television ahead of their US broadcasts. In fact, the entire rest of the first season was initially scheduled to debut in Canada over the following weeks, but it was all pulled and replaced with re-runs, presumably because someone US-side didn't like how far ahead they were getting! However, the show still couldn't catch a break, as the next two episodes premiered on the Xfinity X1 service more than two weeks before they aired on television, with the remaining Chapter One episodes each airing in Singapore at least a week ahead of their US broadcast.
*With the exception of a kid in "[[Teletraan-X (episode)|Teletraan-X]]", modern day Earth in ''Cyberverse'' is almost completely devoid of humans.
