Universal Studios’ Transformers ride launches Dec 3 (US Singapore)

Mark the date down -- Saturday, 3 December.

That's when the highly anticipated Transformers theme park ride at
Universal Studios Singapore throws its doors open to the public.

Gracing the exclusive gala premiere of "Transformers: The Ride" a day
earlier will be none other than Michael Bay, director and executive
producer of the Transformers blockbuster franchise and the
attraction's creative consultant.

"I am very excited about the debut of this attraction at Universal
Studios Singapore. Finally, Transformers fans will not only have the
chance to watch the Autobots battle the Decepticons on screen; they'll
actually be part of the action," Bay said.

In a statement, USS said the motion thrill ride will showcase the most
advanced evolution of immersive theme park entertainment. It will
feature 12 scenes, comprising sets blended seamlessly with
hyper-realistic 3-D digital media and special effects to bring tactile
realism to every moment.

The Allspark Shard – what the new recruits (guest) will need to
protect from Megatron and the Decepticons. …

Guests will be transported onboard advanced motion-based ride vehicles
into the Transformers universe and partake in a 3D battle against
Decepticons alongside the Autobots.

Enlisted as Nest recruits, thrill-seekers will be tasked to help the
Autobots protect a remaining shard of the Allspark — a powerful energy
cube that gives life to the Transformers.

As the Decepticons attack the facility in a bid to obtain the shard,
guests will be introduced to a new Autobot — Evac — created
exclusively for the ride, which will bring them through 3-D subway
tunnels, down city streets and across rooftops at breakneck speed.

Resorts World Sentosa (RWS) said it's confident the ride will raise
the bar for immersive ride experiences anywhere in the world and will
be a game changer for theme park attractions.

Tan Hee Teck, CEO of Resorts World Sentosa, said, "Resorts World
Sentosa transformed Singapore as its first integrated resort in 2010,
and we will continue to bring in game changing attractions to the
region."

Special year-end holiday packages for Universal Studios Singapore will
be rolled out through the Resorts World Sentosa website and authorised
travel agents. '
