Autobots, are you ready to roll out? Transformers: Rise of the Beasts rides into theaters this weekend, and this time, the Transformers are transporting us back to the '90s. Starring In the Heights’ Anthony Ramos and Swarm’s Dominique Fishback, Rise of the Beasts follows the Autobots (and a few humans) as they learn to work with a whole new, beastly faction of Transformers called the Maximals. The franchise, which began as a Hasbro toy line and has since sparked multiple animated Transformers TV shows, a Marvel comics run and the Michael Bay live-action movie series, continues to expand, with another Transformers sequel already confirmed. So if you’re looking to catch up on the timeline of Optimus Prime and his pals, you may need a bit of help navigating. Here’s how (and where) to watch every Transformers movie in chronological order.

How many Transformers movies are there?

From the 2007 Michael bay Transformers movie to Mark Wahlberg's The Last Knight, there are currently seven feature-length Transformers movies, including the new one, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.

Where are the Transformers movies streaming?

Right now, you can stream three Transformers movies on Paramount+ and catch the newest Transformers film, Rise of the Beasts, in theaters. The rest of the franchise is available to rent or buy on Amazon Prime Video.

Paramount+ has two tiers available: a $5/month ad-supported tier and a $10 premium tier that’s ad-free and includes live access to your local CBS channel.  

In addition to movies like Bumblebee and Transformers: Age of Extinction, Paramount+ offers a host of other hit shows, new and classic movies and live sporting events. Unlike a lot of other streaming services these days, Paramount+ still offers a one-week free trial — so new subscribers can sign up to catch up on Transformers this weekend and check out the rest of the Paramount+ library totally free for seven days.
