Activision has just sent over a trailer for their upcoming Transformers Prime video game that will arrive on Nintendo Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo DS platforms this fall.

This is the same trailer that was teased in the Transformers: Prime Season One Limited Edition Blu-ray Boxset that came out earlier this month.

The game will put gamers in control of the Autobots and will "explore unique vistas all around the world with brawler-style combat and diverse driving sequences" as they "save the Earth from Megatron and his new secret weapon."
