Some badass information and a snippet of the darker tone the sotry is taking:




The Tortured Warrior

WHile there are plenty of compelling story elements surrounding Fall of Cybertron, few characters or situations have as much potential as the reintroduction of Grimlock and his Dinobots into the Transformers canon.

Grimlock is one of the most dangerous warrios in the Autobot faction, with power that rivals even Optimus Prime and Megatron. But that doesn't mean he agrees with all his leader's decisions. Disgusted with Prime's decision to abandon their home planet, Grimlock abandons his post and disappears. His powerful strike force is lost, along with all the good they could do on the battlefield.



His fate is a gruesome one. The calculating scientist Shockwave captures the Autobot warrior and his crew, and experiments on them using data gathered from a far off planet called Earth- a world still in its infancy, populated by hulking reptilian beasts. With plans to turn them into insanely powerful slave warriors, Shockwave alters Grimlock and his fellow soldiers to match these powerful forms, in some cases sacrificing higher functioning for brute power. In Grimlock's case, his speech processing has suffered the worst, masking his keen intellect behind an idiot's words.



Starsscream discovers Grimlcok chained within Shockwave's lair, and decides to recruit him. The Autobot insterad uses the opportunity to escape, brutalizing Starscream in the process, and heading off in search of his companions. As he tears through Shockwave's minions he wields a massive sword and shield. His style of gameplay is dramatically differentfrom playable characters elsewhere in the game. If he wants a ranged weapon, it comes by picking up an enemy robot and flinging it. Grimlock is also the only character that can't transform at will; each enemy he kills fuels his rage, until at last Shockwave's full alterations take over. Grimlock's hulking metallic body begins to shift and twist, and a roaring Tyrannasaurus Rex emerges. The beast breathes fire at Shockwaves swarming insecticon minions. He bites one of them clean in half. His tail and feet smash any creature that comes near. Grimlock hasw become part of what Shockwave desired- an unstoppable engine of destruction- but he's not under anyone's control."
