Terminator: Survivors Early Access Release Delayed to 2025
Developer Nacon has announced that its open-world co-op game Terminator: Survivors has been delayed from its original October Early Access release date.
The studio announced the schedule change on its official X/Twitter account, revealing that the Skynet survival game’s Early Access build will no longer launch on October 24. It’s now been pushed to an unspecified date in 2025, with Nacon citing a desire to meet fans’ expectations. It acknowledges that the news will be disappointing for those who planned on playing the next Terminator game this Halloween but is confident in its decision, saying, “In the long term we believe this is the right call.”

“Over the past few months, we’ve been really impressed by your enthusiasm and amazed by the response to our announcements, and we know how eagerly fans are awaiting Terminator: Survivors,” the studio said. “To realize our vision, and to make sure to deliver the game that fits your expectations, we need some additional time. Thus, we will be pushing the launch to 2025.”
Terminator: Survivors was announced in 2022 as a cutthroat multiplayer game set just after the events of the universe’s apocalyptic Judgement Day but before John Connor forms his Skynet resistance group. Additional details arrived this past February, revealing a project that tasks players with scavenging in a worn-down open world with up to three friends as they fight off both enemy humans and relentless Terminators.
“This takes place in a yet unexplored timeline of the Terminator universe,” creative director Marco Ponte said earlier this year, “with a completely original storyline that includes both famous characters and new ones, and where you’ll learn about the beginnings of John Connor’s resistance.”
