Special location

Summoning
To summon Optimus Prime or Megatron, find the Spacebridge Beacon. However, you can't use this device at any time during the match. When the sky turns grey, only then can it be used to summon the robots.
Optimus Prime and Megatron can turn into their alt and bot forms. While the former has melee attacking skill, the latter has a ranged-attacking ability. Additionally, these robots can be upgraded with Energon, which unlocks their powerful ultimate skills.
Tips and tricks
- Arena in Neon Outpost is a pretty open area, so equip proper gear or play strategically there. Otherwise, locations like the Black Market and Energy Plant are better options.
- Taking down Optimus Prime and Megatron is no child's play. However, if your squad works together, you can defeat them by using their weaknesses to your advantage. This can be done by confronting Optimus Prime in a long-range fight and a close-range fight with Megatron.
- Multiple portals are available until the last minutes of the match throughout the map. Retreat there when a fight seems to get out of hand. However, you must familiarize yourself with the map to pull off this strategy.
