Jazz is an Autobot from the War for Cybertron portion of the Transformers: Prime continuity family.

"I'd rather not featured in the campaign than being dead so fast."

Jazz is a cool and collected Autobot. Before the war he was part of the caste tasked with cultural observation and analysis, which gave him more freedom and a wider perspective on the world than his good friend Optimus. Though the war has changed much of his life (he is now a skilled and deadly combatant), two things remain constant: his dedication to the friend who is now also his leader, and the interest he takes in all facets of culture, wherever his travels lead.

Jazz is an pre-order exclusive downloadable content character and is not playable in the War for Cybertron storyline campaign. Using a preorder code to unlock him will allow the player to use Jazz in Escalation mode, and makes his chassis available for customizing an online multiplayer character for Autobot scouts.

Jazz was one of many Autobots who was captured by the Decepticons and sent to the Kaon prison complex. He passed the time in incarceration by doing push ups in his cell, waiting for the day he would be able to break out. That chance came when Optimus, Bumblebee and Sideswipe (who had allowed themselves to be captured) opened all the cells in Kaon during a daring attempted rescue mission of Zeta Prime. Air Raid led the prisoners to transport ships where they escaped. Transformers: War for Cybertron
