Transformers: Battlegrounds (Xbox One)

The squad-based combat system really shines when you're coordinating Bumblebee and Optimus Prime's special moves mid-battle, and the Autobot banter keeps it light even as Megatron closes in. I've sunk a good six hours into the campaign and the map design from Central City onward feels genuinely tact

Picked this up for some couch co-op with my kid, and the turn-based combat is surprisingly strategic for an all-ages game. The voice acting from the original cast really brings the Autobots to life during cutscenes.

Turn-based strategy actually works surprisingly well on console here, and the voice acting in cutscenes is top-notch. Picking my squad of Autobots before each fight in Central City makes me feel like a real commander.
