About This Game

In BEAST WARS you travel along the planet's surface and explore many areas, looking to destroy any enemies that cross your path. The innovative auto-targeting system locks on to any enemies in your area and makes for some straightforward killing. However, don't think it's going to be easy, as you will have to dodge enemy gunfire at the same time. Eventually, your character will use up his Energon supply and you will have to refuel by transforming into Beast mode. While in Beast mode you cannot attack, and your sole purpose is to find power-ups to restore your Energon. BEAST WARS offers 10 different transformers to choose from, each with their own traits. You'll also have the chance to battle in four different environments, each having its own set of enemies. With 24 missions to play and eight bonus missions, you'll have plenty to keep you occupied.

"The Maximals and I have no choice but to stop Megatron and his Predacon minions before they destroy us all! Freedom may be the right of sentient beings, but to protect the greater good, we must vanquish the Galaxy from these evil Predacon creatures! It won't be easy ... but nothing worthwhile ever is!" The everlasting Transformers line has entered into a metamorphosis once again. But this time, battle-ready robots are fused with the likes of insects and animals as their evil and do-good counterparts respectively. As you enter the Beast Wars game, a Maximal ship has chased a Predacon vessel through a time warp – and both have crash landed on a planet much like Earth, in the time that dinosaurs ruled. Upon landing, the Predacons have stolen a golden disk containing the location of a major Energon source that, if found, will enable them to resume an intergalactic war with the Maximals. The Maximals and Predacons realize the power of the Energon is so intense it will damage their robotic structures with prolonged exposure. Therefore, to survive in this environment, both groups use bio-genetic engineering to fuse their robotic body structures with native animal life forms. The result: wild animals which can transform into robot warriors to engage in an explosive fight to the finish. The game is set even further in the future than the television series. The Maximals and Predacons have settled in distinct areas around the planet, and have developed their own bases and armies to aid in the fight against their opposing forces.
