As a sequel to the 2024 movie, "Transformers One," this movie will take place a few years after Cybertron's first battle for independence, which is where two factions have risen: the heroic Autobots led by Optimus Prime (formerly Orion Pax) and the evil Decepticons led by Megatron (formerly D-16). The Autobots are preparing for their next battle against the Quintessons, but the Deceptive want to destroy the Autobots because Megatron wants his comrades to fight the Quintessons themselves without anything or anyone in their way. The robot civil war demolishes everything in its path causing the planet's flowing Energon lines to dramatically decrease. What can be done about the civil war? What can be done about the Energon? What can be done about the Quintessons?
