Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Select your character and begin the assault on Iacon. Use fountains for cover and find an ammo crate and Neutron Assault Rifle near the central fountain.
  2. 2
    Cross the bridge, dealing with Car Soldiers, Protectors, and Rocket Soldiers. Soundwave can heal teammates with his Energon Repair Ray.
  3. 3
    Cross the stream, eliminate remaining Protectors, and open supply crates. Grab the Energon Battle Pistol from a weapon crate around the corner.
  4. 4
    In the next courtyard, pick up EMP Grenades at the base of a pillar. Use them to unmask and defeat Cloakers that ambush your squad. Proceed down the stairs.
  5. 5
    Follow Starscream and your fellow Decepticons. Stock up on supplies from EMP Shotgun and ammo crates.
  6. 6
    Engage Snipers on elevated ledges. Use the Energon Battle Pistol or the sniper near the fountain. Prioritize Snipers before engaging ground enemies.
  7. 7
    AUTOBOT SYMBOL 11: Located in the sky above the courtyard, within a large piece of architecture. Look for arches and a circular plate.
  8. 8
    Collect Energon Cubes and ammo. Head up the ramp and onto the bridge.
  9. 9
    On the bridge, deal with arriving Snipers, Protectors, and Rocket Soldiers, using the windows for cover. Find Energon Shards on a balcony behind the bridge.
  10. 10
    Reach the waypoint on the opposite end of the bridge and enter Stellar Gallieres.
  11. 11
    Slay Autobots in the hallway and pick up supplies. Enter the security station.
  12. 12
    Security Station: A defense pillar will activate. To disable it, corrupt the three computer panels using Dark Energon. Each Decepticon takes one panel.
  13. 13
    Avoid spinning lasers and hop between platforms. Sentry turrets will appear; either destroy them or disable the security quickly.
  14. 14
    After disabling the station, drop down and proceed through the archway.
  15. 15
    Defeat three sentry turrets and two Shotgunners. Use an EMP Grenade to stun the Shotgunners and prioritize turrets. Find Energon and ammo crates at the end of the hall.
  16. 16
    The Stellar Galleries: Megatron opens a door into a planetarium.
  17. 17
    Stand on one of the two pillars to find Thermo Mines.
  18. 18
    Destroy all the model planets orbiting the giant Cybertron model to corrupt it and obtain the "Chaos Bringer" Achievement.
  19. 19
    Head up the ramp and interact with the control panel for a scene. The Omega Key is acquired.
  20. 20
    Defeat the enemies, including Jet Soldiers, that Megatron summons. A Thermo Rocket Launcher is available below the ramp. Use explosive pods to destroy ground enemies.
  21. 21
    Once enemies are cleared, doors below the ramp open. Heal with Energon Cubes.
