“Transformers is the perfect franchise for AR,” said Niantic CEO John Hanke in a comment. In the actual world, fighting and engaging with giant robots is an incredible experience. The company would like to live up to the high desires of Transformers followers all over the world by delivering a game unlike any other gamers have ever experienced.
