Transistor quickly forms an identity of its own, boasting a unique battle system and an intriguing story.

Transistor is a riveting and memorable experience from beginning to end.

Step your little foot into this land before time, a time full of carnage.
The Combat of Giants series in a nutshell consists of a gathering of whatever enormous creatures man can muster up and then pitting them against each other to the death. These games have been historically based on dragons, mutant insects, or in the case of this game, dinosaurs. But for the first time ever, Ubisoft Montreal is bringing all the carnage and frenzy into eye popping 3D.
