Synopsis
"The Saga's Latest" (Part 1)
Optimus Prime and his team GroundBridge to the event horizon between universes, where Megatronus has gone to reclaim the Requiem Blaster. Things seem hopeless at first, but the arrival of Armada Megatron and several of his Terrorcons raises their hopes. He promptly orders Demolishor and Quake open fire on the Blaster.
"The Saga's Latest" (Part 2)
Megatronus demands they stop, but the two Decepticons ignore his orders and begin shooting at the Artifact, only to find that their gunfire is bouncing off of it—someone has put up a forcefield! Armada Wheeljack notes that Megatronus seems just as confused, and their question is soon answered when the other two Megatrons to appear, revealing it to Soundwave's handiwork, under orders from them. Megatronus threatens to destroy them, but (G1) Megatron points out that his powers don't work as they normally do in this realm, and he risks damaging himself if he uses them. Soundwave informs them that the Blaster is ready to be transported, and they leave. Now, all three factions in the Earth Wars have at least one Artifact of the Primes, marking the start of a new arms race.

Gameplay
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
- 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
- The other Megatrons' plan to get their hands on an Artifact of the Primes has been in action since "Prime Relics."
Transformers references
- (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).
