Activision have announced Optimus Prime as a playable character across three separate modes in Transformers: Rise of the Dark Spark.

Our supreme Autobot leader will appear in the game’s Cybertron and Earth modes, leading the charge against the Decepticon threat. But fans will be pleased to know that G1 Optimus Prime will make his return in the Escalation wave defence mode.

The game is due for release on Wii U and 3DS later this year to accompany the summer release of the next Transformers movie, Transformers: Age of Extinction.
