Warpath and Barricade join the fight in War for Cybertron

Warpath and Barricade join the fight in War for Cybertron

The latest Transformers: War for Cybertron reveals are notpre-order exclusives. We're back to characters everyone can use, and once again, it's an Autobot and Decepticon duo.

Warpath's vehicle form is a tank, automatically making one very badass Autobot, and the guy's been through a lot. He keeps his signature bright red paint job, loses the chest canon, and gets a few edges smoothed out. Barricade, on the other hand, got a total makeover. His bulky '90s incarnation has been redesigned with sharper edges all around, so he more closely resembles the Barricade seen in Michael Bay's recent Transformers flicks.

The current roster is comprised of Air Raid, Breakdown, Ironhide, and Skywarp, while Jazz, Shockwave, and Demolishor are reserved as pre-order incentives.

WARPATHAutobotClass: Soldier Chassis: TankPrimary Weapon: Neutron RepeaterAbilities: Guided Missile, BarrierDescription: Warpath is loud, confident, skilled and devoted to his fellow Autobots. He is also partially deaf from his amazingly large cannon. His favorite past time is showing his friends how he can split a hex nut a mile and a half away with his tank gun. Extremely well armored to go along with his extreme stubbornness and thick skull, Warpath always loves to press the battle to the Decepticons.BARRICADEDecepticonClass: ScoutChassis: CarPrimary Weapon: Neutron RepeaterAbilities: Shockwave, CloakDescription: Barricade is a true speed demon, powering his engine to speeds faster than some jets. He is a brutal leader on the battlefield, scolding Decepticons that do not perform up to his and Megatron’s standards. His favorite tactic is to goad Autobots into transforming and chasing him, then taking the Autobots on fatal routes that only he can navigate.
