No name yet, but here’s a teaser
The “one last thing” at theNacon Connect 2022showcase was a newTerminatorgame for PC and consoles, and while we don’t have a name yet — or anything concrete, footage-wise — we do know this is the “first survival game set in theTerminatoruniverse.”
I bet you can predict everything that happens in this teaser trailer.
Nacon’sTerminatorsurvival game is in production at Nacon Studio Milan, rather than Teyon, the team behindTerminator: Resistance, which some fans have rallied around.
Open-world survival in the wake of Judgment Day
“The game takes place in a post-apocalypticopen worldand features anoriginal storythat builds on the events of the official films,”according to the studio.
“You play as a group of nuclear apocalypse survivors fighting to stay alive in a time period between Judgment Day and the creation of John Connor’s resistance.”
With little to grasp yet, this is a harder sell than another ’80s-icon-turned-game,RoboCop: Rogue City, which shared the first look at gameplay during Nacon’s stream.
After playing way too many survival games, I can imagine what this gamecouldlook like — and really, I feel like it could go either way. Genre, scope, and budget are all top of mind when it comes to licensed games like this. And to me, this team is a wildcard. I am vaguely into the idea of fighting for life in an intimidating machine-dominated world, though.
Are you open to a Skynet survival game, or have you had your fill ofTerminatortie-ins by now? Come to think of it, I’ve gone pretty deep in the Sega Genesis and SNES libraries over the years, but I’ve never touchedRoboCop Versus The Terminator. Hmm.
