Terminator: Survivors release date
Terminator Survivors is an open-world survival game where you’ll need to fight smartly to survive the threats of a post-apocalyptic world. While details are still light right now, Nacon Studio Milan says that the Terminator Survivors gameplay experience will see you battling against the threats posed by other humans, machines, and the Terminator. Creative director Marco Ponte says you’ll be able to “join forces with other survivors” if you want to for four-player cooperative multiplayer, although the entire game can be played solo.

Terminator Survivors will also feature base-building elements, where you and other FBS resistance fighters can establish stronger bases of operations to better understand the threat posed by Skynet. “You’ll explore a wide open world, scavenging for resources that aren’t just for your own survival but also for managing and improving your base,” says Ponte. Little else is known about the game right now, but released concept art shows a focus on modular firearms for first-person combat, stealth systems, evolving bases, and the presence of key resources like food and gasoline.
Terminator Survivors is set in 2009, just a few short years after Judgment Day – the day that Skynet became self-aware and launched a nuclear war against the world’s superpowers. Creative director Marco Ponte says that Terminator Survivors will be confined to the events that occurred in the first two movies, although the game will ultimately be its own thing. “This takes place in a yet unexplored timeline of the Terminator universe. With a completely original storyline that includes famous characters and new ones, where you’ll learn about the beginnings of John Connor’s resistance.”
While we wait for more information on Terminator Survivors, why not go back and watch T1 and T2: Judgment Day. They are, after all, two of thebest action moviesof all-time.
