Courtesy of GameSpy, we now have details for the upcoming PC release of Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, set for release next month. The game will more than just a port for the PC - with High Moon Studios busy with the release of the console versions, they have passed the torch to fellow studio, Mercenary Technology. Mercernary Tech is set on refining Fall of Cybertron for the PC, and making it run much smoother than it's predecessor. We also have our first PC screens for the game. Enjoy!

Here's what else I learned about the PC version of Transformers: Fall of Cybertron:
In what appears to be a first for Activision, Fall of Cybertron will be a digital exclusive in the US, though there will be a retail version overseas. A sign of things to come?

Activision won't be attaching any additional DRM to Fall of Cybertron.

There will not be a map editor or mod tools of any kind.

The PC version will launch alongside its console counterparts on August 21. Livergood added that all Transformers: Fall of Cybertron DLC will also be released simultaneously across all platforms.

There you have it. Steamworks, enhanced visuals, and customizable controls designed for keyboard and mouse. We'll find out if Mercenary Technology can deliver the PC goods next month.

I sure hope so. It sucks having to use AutoHotkey to map my keys the way I like them for WfC.

I hope they're fully mappable for FoC and not like some games that force you to choose between certain 'allowed' key mappings for each action. I hate that because I use a very unconventional setup for my FPS's.
