Release date
Netflix has yet to confirm a release date for 'Transformers: War for Cybertron' but from what we know, is that the first part will drop sometime in 2020.
Plot
According to the official synopsis on Netflix, "'Transformers: War For Cybertron Trilogy: Siege' begins in the final hours of the devastating civil war between the Autobots and Decepticons. The war that has torn apart their home planet of Cybertron is at a tipping point. Two leaders, Optimus Prime and Megatron, both want to save their world and unify their people, but only on their own terms. In an attempt to end the conflict, Megatron is forced to consider using the Allspark, the source of all life and power on Cybertron, to 'reformat' the Autobots, thus 'unifying' Cybertron. Outnumbered, outgunned, and under SIEGE, the battle-weary Autobots orchestrate a desperate series of counterstrikes on a mission that, if everything somehow goes right, will end with an unthinkable choice: kill their planet in order to save it."
Voice cast
The voice cast includes Edward Bosco as Ultra Magnus and Soundwave, Brook Chalmers as Impactor, Jake Foushee as Optimus Prime, and Rafael Goldstein as Ratchet.
Creators
Written by George Krstic, Gavin Hignight, and Brandon M Easton, the show is produced Rooster Teeth Productions, Polygon Pictures, while Stephen Davis is the executive producer.
