Transformers: War for Cybertron — Autobots and Transformers: War for Cybertron — Decepticons are two video games developed by Vicarious Visions for the Nintendo DS, and published by Activision. Like their big brother for the PC and consoles, they are over-the-shoulder third-person shooters set in the early days of the Great War. Chronologically, the Decepticon campaign is set before the Autobot one.

Differences with Xbox 360/PS3/PC version
- You pick two Transformers, who can be switched at any time during gameplay. A character who is knocked out can be revived by defeating a certain number of enemies.
- Unlike the mainstream version that restricted player choice to 3 fixed characters per chapter (e.g. Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Ratchet for "Defense of Iacon"), any two Transformers can be chosen to do any stage.
- As opposed to only two unlockable characters (Slipstream and Arcee), the DS versions come with numerous unlockables. The Decepticons get the likes of Motormaster, Cyclonus and Onslaught (the latter two being bosses in the Autobot version) while the Autobots get Ultra Magnus, Grimlock and Cliffjumper (Cliffjumper being a boss).
