Both teams start out on either sides of a map with 4 random units from each side and are tasked with destroying all enemy units. They can then choose to play against the AI or another person. a large group of Decepticons.Ĭybertron Arena is a group of maps on which the player can choose to play either faction. These range from the player using Ironhide to take down Trypticon, to Blaster and Ratchet vs. Showdown is a group of scenarios that each revolve around a "gimmick". Both sides awaken on Earth and begin fighting for energon, and the Autobots make multiple attempts to retake Cybertron. Story Mode follows a very rough version of the original G1 cartoon. The player is able to take control of both the Autobot and Decepticon forces (though the latter are only available in Cybertron Arena). Each mission is essentially "destroy or be destroyed", with your goal being to destroy all enemy forces, though there are exceptions which require you to capture certain things on the map.

Initially, only Story mode is available, but its completion will unlock Showdown, which upon completion will unlock Cybertron Arena. Awakening is a turn-based strategy consisting of three modes: Story Mode, Showdown and Cybertron Arena.
