A New RTS Game in the Terminator Universe Announced

Here's your chance to become John Connor for a day.

A UK-based publisher Slitherine in collaboration with Skydance and Russian developers Cats Who Play is working on a new RTS game set in the world of Terminator. The upcoming game is called Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance and it was announced at the publisher's Home of Wargamers live event. The game puts you in the middle of the war between humanity and machines, making you a commander in charge of an army of survivors with a goal to foil the evil AI's plan to destroy humanity.

Features:

  • Start humanity’s resistance against the machines by surviving engagements with Legion and rallying others to your cause. In the post-Judgement Day world, the greatest threats may not come from the machines but rather from other human survivors.
  • Traverse various dangerous locations, find additional allies and supplies and navigate the brutal differences between competing human factions.
  • Engage in complex, realistic battles where your tactical decisions are vital to your survival and ultimate victory. Use a variety of military equipment, vehicles, and ammunition types in your battles against the enemy. Recruit and train new units, assign new skills and acquire new weapons and equipment to continue the resistance.
  • Your battlefield tactics and choices have deep consequences. Your resources are limited and you must protect your army. Weapons of war receive damage through a modular component damage system where armor characteristics, component malfunctions, and hull structure all affect if your troops survive.
  • Recruit others to your cause and grow your army. Mix and match the composition of your troops to fit your preferred battle tactics. Use infantry units, heavy armored military vehicles, plasma cannon technology, drones, and other flying units, and even human skirmishers to achieve victory.
  • Use the battlefield to your advantage! Physics-based building demolition lets you generate a realistic set of tactical consequences, especially in urban areas.
  • Test your skills in online multiplayer matches. Fight against real-life human opponents in 1v1, 2v1, and 2v2 battles.

The game is planned to be released on PC in the second half of 2022. You can learn more here. Also, don't forget to join our new Reddit pageour new Telegram channel, follow us on Instagram and Twitter, where we are sharing breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
