The trailer for the Netflix original anime series, Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy: Siege made its debut yesterday at the New York Toy Fair, and it promises to showcase a new side of the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons.

The trailer is set during the midpoint of the War for Cybertron, and things are not looking good for the Autobots, who are trying to prevent Megatron from finding the AllSpark.

The trailer is full of intense and subversive moments, including a heated exchange between Optimus Prime and Bumblebee over the war strategy and the appearance of Elita-One, who in the Generation One continuity was Optimus Prime's wife.

The animated trilogy will be spilt into three parts: Siege, Earthrise and an unmanned third chapter. More details on the trilogy's conclusion are expected to be released in the near future.
