A world has already been stolen...
Without humanity realizing it, the Decepticons cleverly infiltrated society and took control of the Earth from behind the scenes.
Corporations, the military, intelligence networks - everything is under their control.
Freedom was lost and dignity was trampled upon.

The Autobots rose from defeat and secretly formed the "Autobot Resistance."
