The components can transform from beasts into robots or combine with each other to form Infernocus, with the central component's swords forming a larger sword. (On the other hand, Infernocus can combine with the other Prime Legion Class Predacons or the component robots from the Go! Goradora set to form some kind of a mumble jumble whatchamajigger combiner if you have no idea what you're doing.) Infernocus also features Cyberglyphics on his Combiner chest, which confusingly translates his name. Due to Skulk's larger body size, Infernocus' combined mode was closely scaled with some Voyager Class figures like Premier Edition Optimus Prime.
He was revealed as a part of a sponsored Entertainment Weekly article on June 1, ahead of the Transformers team's Google Hangout later that day. Infernocus was released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive as part of their Mission to Cybertron subline, and as such comes with a Mission Card that can be deciphered with the decoder provided by the Transformers website.
