Gameplay
[edit]This event was an individual totaliser, meaning players earned points and unlocked prizes on their own as opposed to with their Alliance. The top prize was 6000 Cybertronian alloy.
Notes
[edit]- As with the past few months of events, the name of the dialogue differs from that of the event, instead being called "The Saga's Latest."
- Concurrent with this event, the newly-released pay-to-unlock skins of the month are the Halloween-themed "Draconic Sky Lynx" and "Vampire Bomb-Burst".
Continuity notes
[edit]- The other Megatrons' plan to get their hands on an Artifact of the Primes has been in action since "Prime Relics."
Transformers references
[edit]- (G1) Megatron notes that (his) Optimus Prime has his "Age of Primes toys," and that he wants one as well, referencing the concurrent Age of the Primes toyline, which includes a Titan Class figure of Optimus' Star Convoy form, but no figures of Megatron (G1 or otherwise).
