Nacon, the publisher behind the anticipated open-world Terminator game initially revealed in July 2022, now named Terminator: Survivors, has made a notable return. Accompanied by a fresh cinematic trailer, the game is set to debut on Steam Early Access on October 24th of this year.
Developed by Nacon Studio Milan, known for titles like Rims Racing and TT Isle of Man: Ride on the Edge 3, Terminator: Survivors unfolds four years after the catastrophic Judgment Day depicted in the first two Terminator movies.
In this narrative, players step into the shoes of survivors amidst humanity’s brink of extinction. They can embark on their journey solo or team up with three friends to confront the daunting challenge of rebuilding society in a hostile world bent on eradicating mankind’s remnants.
The gameplay involves traversing a perilous post-apocalyptic landscape, scavenging for essential materials, gathering resources, seeking information, and encountering fellow survivors to forge alliances. The primary objective is to establish a secure base of operations for the group’s survival.
However, players are not without adversaries. The announcement warns of relentless pursuit by Skynet’s robotic forces and the competition with rival human factions vying for the same scarce resources.
While today’s reveal features an atmospheric trailer, it leaves much to the imagination regarding gameplay specifics. Fans can anticipate more detailed insights leading up to the game’s Steam Early Access launch on October 24th. Nacon promises releases for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S at a later date, expanding the game’s accessibility across different gaming platforms.
