Ever since Microsoft successfully took over Activation Blizzard with a $69 Billion dollar deal, fans have been speculating about a lot of long-lost revivals. The redemption journey for Activision titles began with Microsoft bringing back matchmaking for the FPS giant. While Microsoft was making the headlines for the same, a Hasbro official expressed the desire for a Transformers franchise revival. The request involved a controversial claim against the publishers of the franchise. Trying to end the series of events, Hasbro has come up with an apology. 

Transformers fans were taken by surprise after Hasbro made a bizarre allegation on Activision. Almost a week back, a member of the toy company had spoken against the Call of Duty makers for the mismanagement of Transformers titles. The rift has now taken a new turn as the officials recently took back their statement in an apology. The Hasbro official called the previous statement “in error.” This week-long fiasco between Hasbro and Activision has left gaming fans confused.

Transformers Series Overlooked By Activision?

In the latest statement made to VGC, a Hasbro official made a public apology to Activision Blizzard. The makers of Call of Duty had published plenty of the brand’s titles. The official quoted, “To clarify, comments that suggest Transformers games have been lost were made in error. We apologize to Activision and regret any confusion – they’ve been great partners, and we look forward to future opportunities to work together.”

Transformers: Devastation, Fall of Cybertron, Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark, and Transformers: War for Cybertron all these Activision-published titles have been unavailable for a while now. The week-old statements that claimed Activision had overlooked the Transformer gaming series immediately grabbed fan attention. As per the allegation, the publishers had lost the original hard drives of the games. Adding on the latter emphasized the frustration of a “company eating a company.”

The public apology has certainly calmed the Transformers fans. The end of the allegation controversy might call for a beginning of a new chapter for the series. Speculations have already begun for the series’ addition to a Game Pass. After a convincing apology, Transformers’ arrival at Xbox Game Pass seems imminent, at least fans hope so. 

Undoubtedly, with Microsoft moving forward in the acquisition, there are plenty of forgotten titles seeking possible redemption. Transformers making the buzz on the internet might be the time for the developers to explore its archives. Hopefully, ‘no errors’ would be made in the series’ redemption.
