Coming from seemingly out of nowhere, last week we got some leaked info on an upcoming Activision Transformers title called Devastation. With its beautifully rendered cell shaded 3D animation style and Generation One visuals, this game has been on everyone’s radar ever since. We’ve since learned that beyond simply looking like a G1 Masterpiece, it will sound like it too! Returning to reprise their G1 Character roles are Frank Welker as Megatron, Peter Cullen as Optimus Prime, Dan Gilvizan as Bumblebee and Gregg Berger as Grimlock.

We now have the official press released from Activision, as well as the teaser video in HD and some high end screen shots. Take a look after the bump for more information.
