LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Michael Bay's 'Transformer' franchise is back with another action-packed addition that introduces a new range of heroes and villains. The trailer has fans excited about the introduction of 'Unicron' and 'Maximals' because they are considered to be more powerful than the existing 'Autobots' and 'Decepticons'.

While the movie gears up for its release recently, it promises the presence of a 'dark god' who is known for devouring planets. The action, CGI, and potential story have had fans hooked since the launch of the trailer. It is expected to live up to the hopes of the audiences as much as 'Bumblebee' did.

What is the plot of ‘Transformers: Rise of the Beasts'? 

The plot of 'Transformers: Rise of the Beasts' is heavily inspired by the story followed in the TV series 'Beast Wars: Transformers (1996)'. The plot will be expanding from the universe of 'Autobots' and 'Decepticons' and includes a new villain 'Unicron'.

The story is about the biggest challenge undertaken by 'Optimus Prime' and the 'Autobots' as a new planet-destroying threat emerges. It befalls on the shoulder of 'Optimus Prime' and his Autobots to team up with 'Maximals' who has been dubbed as one of the powerful factions of the 'Transformers'. With 'Unicron' being a much bigger threat and having the power to control 'Terrorcons', the plot does not indicate any level playing field for the 'Autobots' without the involvement of 'Maximals'.
