On September 26, 2019, the first chapter of the Act, **Autobots Turn**, launched.

Continuing from where Generations left off, Wheeljack and Jetfire are launched into a potential crisis as they end up in a parallel timeline (perhaps this was where alternate-Arcee originated from) where Megatronus' Titan-related carnage has not started. Emphasis on the **has not**.

There are no Autobots, no Marissa, no way to get back; all they face are corrupted Bots from a plethora of realities, ready to scrap the two. And with Shockwave in the mix, they are in for some serious trouble! To get back, they will have to put their Sparks on the line, as their journey home begins...
