Transformers: Forged to Fight (formerly called Transformers: Generations Collide) is a fighting RPG mobile game by [Kabam]. It features characters from multiple eras of Transformers history, but mostly from Generation 1 and the live-action film series.

Story

The Autobots and the Earth Defense Command have found a way to restore life to Cybertron, so Optimus Prime, with Marissa Faireborn and her crew, begins the long journey home. But passing through the Eshems Nebula, they encounter a spatial warp field and the Ark crash-lands on an unknown planet. After encountering Starscream, a strange new Decepticon, and a corrupted Autobot from another reality, Optimus entrusts the Matrix of Leadership to the Commander. As the Commander, you must find reinforcements, set up a base of operations and defense, and discover the secrets of the planet.

Gameplay

Gameplay is similar to Marvel Contest of Champions, also made by Kabam.

• Right Tap: Light attack or Shoot when far away
• Right Swipe: Medium attack or Dash forward when far away
• Right Hold: Heavy attack - Transform into alt mode and break through an opponent's block
• Left Swipe: Dash backward
• Left Hold: Block - reduce incoming damage
• Left Up/Down: Sidestep up/down

When a bot lands and receives enough hits, a Special Attack becomes ready to be used. Higher ranked bots can have their Power further charged for a Special 2 or 3 for epic damage combos! Only one bot can use a special attack at once though! So plan and block or dodge accordingly!

Characters and Mods

Forging

Classes

Each Bot falls into one of six classes. Each class listed gains an attack bonus over the class below it, and has a disadvantage against the class above it.

• Scouts quickly eliminate opponents with frequent Special Attacks and a high Critical Rate. Their rapid attacks give them an advantage over Tech bots.
• Tech Bots generate shields, manipulate Power, and equip some of the most advanced custom weaponry. Their shielding abilities help them when facing Demolitions bots.
• Demolitions Bots are burst damage experts that buff their Special Attacks for bigger, bolder, explosions. Their fewer attacks give them an advantage over Tactician bots.
• Tacticians' strong synergies and master strategies help them adapt during a fight to turn their enemies' strengths against them. Their anti-Armor abilities help them when facing Brawler bots.
• Brawlers are armored allies and furious foes that value strength at any cost. Their low Critical Rate and high attacks give them an advantage over Warrior bots.
• Warriors have deadly accuracy and love bleeding Energon from their opponents. Their tracking systems give them an advantage over the evasive Scout bots.

Base

At the Commander's base, you can assign Bots and Mods to the seven nodes on your base to defend it, and generate Gold over time. The higher the star rating and rank of the bot, the more Gold is generated over a longer time.

There are also these main structures in a base:

• Crystal Extractors - Claim 4-hour Crystals and Daily Crystals from these extractors.
• Alliance HQ (level 5) - Help other Alliance players with help requests to earn Loyalty points Gold.
• Battle Center (level 7) - View other commanders' attempts to raid your base, and enact revenge within 24 hours.
• Mobile Command (Level 10) - Send bots on Away Missions for a small Gold fee to earn decent amounts of currencies.

Relics

Relics give a permanent boost when placed on your base, each found through specific tasks.

• Immobilizer - obtained as a possible prize from an Alliance Crystal.
• Star Saber - was obtainable in the Raid Store at some point in the game.
• Covenant of the Primus - obtained by completing Act 1 100%.
• Matrix of Leadership - Obtained after 21 consecutive days of logging in on the daily calendar for June. It gives +5% XP in Story and Special Missions.
• Fallen Titan Hand - Can be obtained by completing the extremly difficult Legends of Cyberron Special Mission.

• Unstable Energon Cube - Obtained for completing the "Shocking Revelations" special mission arc 100% on either of the three difficulties. It gives +5% XP in Story and Special Missions.

Upgrades

Upgrading Bots and Mods is a multi-step process. A Bot's or Mod's level is increased only by upgrading them with Ore-13 and Gold. Upon reaching every 10 levels, the Bot then can be ranked up with Spark and Gold. Bots and Mods with higher star ratings require more amounts of higher-class Spark with each rank.

Crystals

Though there are dozens of crystals, most of them are one of two kinds: common and rare crystals, such as this Standard and Premium Mod Crystal.

Crystals are used in the Space Bridge to win various prizes, which are presented on a scrolling roulette. Although you can stop the wheel early, it does not affect the outcome, as the prize is determined soon after a crystal is activated. Any duplicate Bots and Mods are converted into Class Ore-13 and Gold.

Notes

• Generation 1 and movie characters are clearly differentiated with their proper classic and movieverse insignias and transformation sounds.
• Though based on New Quintessa, the actual fights take place in various environments, which are Egypt, Chicago, Hong Kong, London, and an arena with a First Autobot insignia in the central circle and surrounded by huge body parts of the in-game fighters.
• Bonecrusher is labelled as Revenge of the Fallen Bonecrusher, despite the fact that he was not in said film. There was a bot with Bonecrusher's appearence, but there's no confirmation the two were intended to be the same character.
