From the metal canyons of Cybertron to the wreck of the Ark, from Quintessa to Unicron himself — every place the four-million-year war has spilled into.

Cybertron
Homeworld

The metal homeworld of the Transformers, a planet-sized machine of cities, canyons and energy. Four million years of civil war over its dwindling Energon set everything that followed in motion.

Iacon
Autobot · Cybertron

The Autobot capital and seat of the High Council, home to the Hall of Records where the archivist Orion Pax worked before becoming Optimus Prime. The symbolic heart of the Autobot cause.

Kaon
Decepticon · Cybertron

The brutal gladiatorial city where Megatron rose from the pits and the Decepticon uprising was born. The dark mirror of Iacon.

Polyhex
Decepticon · Cybertron

A Decepticon-held region of Cybertron, fortress territory across the war and the site of Darkmount, the towering Decepticon citadel.

The Ark
Autobot · Earth

The Autobot starship that pursued the Decepticons from Cybertron and crashed into a volcano on prehistoric Earth, lying dormant until Mount St. Hilary erupted in 1984 and reawakened both crews.

The Nemesis
Decepticon · Earth

The Decepticon warship that chased the Ark down and crashed alongside it, later raised from the ocean floor as a mobile base for Megatron’s Earth campaign.

Autobot City / Metroplex
Autobot · Earth

The fortified Autobot city on Earth, ground zero of the catastrophic Decepticon assault that opens The Transformers: The Movie. Its guardian is the Titan Metroplex himself.

Mount St. Hilary
Earth

The Oregon volcano that swallowed the Ark and, four million years later, erupted to reawaken it. The Autobots’ first Earth base sits inside the mountain.

Junkion
Neutral

The scrap-metal planet of the Junkions, a world built entirely from galactic refuse and ruled by the TV-obsessed Wreck-Gar. The Autobots find unlikely allies here in the 1986 film.

Quintessa
Hostile

The mechanical homeworld of the Quintessons, the five-faced beings revealed to be the original creators of the Transformers, who judge prisoners by feeding them to the Sharkticons.

Unicron
Cosmic threat

A god of destruction the size of a planet — and a place unto itself. Unicron devours worlds for sustenance and reshapes Megatron into Galvatron in his fiery interior.

Charr
Decepticon

The burned-out, resource-poor world the defeated Decepticons retreat to after losing Cybertron in the post-movie era. A symbol of how far Galvatron’s faction has fallen.

Nebulos
Neutral

The organic world whose people bond with Transformers to become Headmasters and Targetmasters, the new power introduced in the Season 4 finale, The Rebirth.

Earth
Battleground

The blue planet caught in the middle: source of the Energon both armies crave, home to the Witwickys and the Autobots’ human allies, and the stage for most of the war the world ever saw.
