Fans of the iconic Terminator franchise might want to mark their calendars for February 29, as game publisher Nacon is getting ready to show off more of its upcoming open-world survival title set in the nightmare future established by the films. Terminator is one of the biggest sci-fi franchises out there, telling the story of an army of time-traveling, murderous robots and the brave humans fighting to stop them from conquering the world. While the sequels following 1991’s seminal Terminator 2: Judgment Day have all been divisive to various degrees, the series has retained its popularity across a variety of mediums.

This includes video games, as there have been countless Terminator tie-in titles across several different genres over the years. These include side-scrolling platform shooters based on the Terminator films, arcade FPS titles that put players behind the sensors of Arnold Schwarzenegger's infamous T-800, and even crossover appearances in games like Fortnite and Mortal Kombat 11. More recently, Reef Entertainment released Terminator: Resistance, a divisive FPS that garnered a cult fanbase despite lukewarm reviews that criticized the game’s undercooked AI and gameplay mechanics.

Now Terminator gaming fans can look forward to February 29, as RoboCop: Rogue City publisher Nacon is hosting a new Nacon Connect livestream that will feature 30 minutes of new footage for a variety of upcoming projects. This line-up will include GreedFall 2: The Dying World, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, Ravenswatch, Crown Wars: The Black Prince, and the yet-untitled Terminator game that was announced back in 2022.

This new Terminator video game is currently being developed by Nacon Studio Milan, and will be an open-world survival title set between Judgment Day — which fans know as the nuclear strike that annihilated most of humanity and gave rise to the supercomputer AI Skynet — and the formation of John Connor’s human resistance movement.
