Activision has released a new trailer for the upcoming Transformers: Dark of the Moon Game, offering the first look at gameplay from the upcoming title.

Like last year's well received Transformers: War for Cybertron, Dark of the Moon is also being developed by the San Diego-based High Moon Studios. However, unlike it's predecessor, the new game will follow a story line that ties into the narrative of the upcoming Michael Bay movie of the same name -- serving as a prologue to the events in the film.

The Transformers: Dark of the Moon game allows players to fight through the epic battles on Earth that will shape the events of the upcoming film. Armed with a brand-new gameplay mechanic, fans will harness the power of Stealth Force to instantly convert to a third, hybrid state that combines the weapons and firepower of robot mode with the agility and manoeuvrability of vehicle mode. Set in unique environments around the world such as the Jungles of South America, Siberian military facilities, Detroit Cityscapes and more, the game lets players assume the roles of a diverse roster of everyone’s favourite TRANSFORMERS from the movie through a heart-pounding campaign to save mankind. Additionally, fans can play the game with or against their friends through intense, online multiplayer game modes as their favourite iconic characters.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon is due on PC, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 to accompany the film's release in late June 2011.
