Random paid character drops in mobile games aren't new, but I'm really feeling the burn in Kabam's mobile fighting game Transformers: Forged to Fight. First I missed out on Beast Wars Waspinator. Now I'm not going to get Soundwave. Ugh.

Transformers: Forged to Fight is a game about giant transforming robots fighting each other. When said giant transforming robots are fighting each other, it is very good. The rest of the time? It's complicated.

Unable to wait for its nebulous spring release in the United States, I went undercover as a Canadian to get my hands on the massive robot battles of Transformers: Forged to Fight. It was worth it.

Mobile developer Kabam and Hasbro roll out a new trailer for their upcoming fighting game at Toy Fair 2017 today, demonstrating just how deep and obscure the roster for Transformers: Forged to Fight is going to get. How many do you recognise?

When mobile developer Kabam announced robot battler Transformers: Forged To Fight earlier this month, I assumed it was little more than a reskin of popular mobile fighter Marvel: Contest of Champions. With features like ranged attacks and 3D movement, it's more like an evolution.

Autobots and Decepticons from all corners of the cartoon, comic, toy and movie universes do battle this autumn in Transformers: Forged To Fight. Developed by Kabam, it sounds a lot like Marvel: Contest of Champions, only with Transformers. That's just prime.

Last year around this time, mobile developer Kabam and Disney released Star Wars: Uprising, a "dull Diablo clone" set between the events of Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. It's shutting down in November.

Star Wars Uprising, the new Diablo clone sitting atop the iTunes charts, could more appropriately be titled Star Wars: Uninspiring. The game is competent. That's about it.

Here's our first look at the gameplay of Star Wars: Uprising, the upcoming Diablo-inspired mobile game from Kabam with great concept art and not a damn trading card in sight.

Poor Juggernaut. All he wants to do is roar his triumph to the heavens, yet his mouth remains closed. It's a fitting allegory for the frustration I feel over Marvel Contest of Champions, a game that could have been so much more than what it is.
