Terminator: Resistance places players in the Future War, the conflict between humanity and Skynet that precedes a decisive battle for mankind’s fate. Set in the post-apocalyptic world associated with The Terminator and T2: Judgment Day, it frames the struggle around a grim question: the machines are destined to lose, but what will that victory cost?
Its first-person combat supports contrasting approaches: players can fight openly or sneak and hack their way through Skynet’s defences. Character progression adds another layer, with skills to level up, while exploration yields scraps to trade and craft. The game also puts survivors at the center of its human drama, letting players interact with a varied group and change their fates. That combination of shooting, stealth, hacking, scavenging, crafting and consequential interactions gives the conflict a broader shape than a straightforward run-and-gun campaign.
The game is listed as single-player, so its play format centers on an individual journey through this war rather than shared multiplayer sessions.
