Italian game studio, Nacon Milan, have just released the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Terminator survival game.
Back in May (2022) Nacon Milan CEO, Marco Ponte stated:
“We’re making a game in a completely different genre, a survival game based on a worldwide famous film license. This title has been really drawing people in since it’s the first film license of such importance to be made into a video game in Italy. It will be an interesting game, with a combat part as well.”

The previous teaser image which was released on the studio’s website featured the Alamo Sport Shop sign from The Terminator (1984) in a post-apocalyptic setting, heavily suggesting a new survival game for both fans of that genre and Terminator fans – the move also brings a new direction for the gaming side of the Terminator franchise.
The new teaser which looks to be set in the world of the first two movies, features an Endoskeleton (not of Genisys / Dark Fate design) and the sound of panicked female breathing, with shotgun shells and Sarah Connor’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day Matsuda sunglasses on the ground.
Could we be playing as the mother of the future or simply unlocking / acquiring some of her iconic clothing and weaponry… ?
The new game will be set in a time frame somewhere between Judgment Day and the beginnings of John Connor‘s Resistance. It will also feature an open-world setting…
Nacon Studio Milan’s official website states that:
“We’re thrilled to announce that our next big project will be set in the world of Terminator, one of the world’s most popular and iconic film franchises.

The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic open world and features an original story that builds on the events of the official films. 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.”
It’s looking good so far.

Sarah’s glasses being in the teaser all but confirms that she’s likely to have some part to play in the game’s story; John’s always the focus in future war scenarios, so to see what an older Sarah might do in the same setting is incredibly exciting. Would she be a warrior? A mentor? A general? A traveler seeking out survivors and persuading them to join John’s resistance? Some combination of all the above? If Nacon can enlist Linda Hamilton to voice Sarah, that would be even better!
I would love to play as the terminator. Go to the ship and communicate with other terminators do errands and find out just how they communicate etc on the ship get yourself skinned to be undetectable with the resistance and use that as a feature you can do repeatedly if you feel like it to help you remain undetected! use other peoples voices to trap people or lure them in. Be able to communicate when the resistance are talking running scared etc would love to see a more in depth game playing as the terminator! Make it 3rd person! Use combat aswell as weapons using the environment and the cold blooded metal of the terminator to execute enemies! Repair skinned damaged terminators to full working order to send back out into battle and access the cpu
Awesome ideas, especially the repair stuff. Maybe you could salvage parts to repair yourself? Could be interesting to have you separated from Skynet and having to fend for yourself.
Trop excitant ! et probablement l’un des meilleur jeu que j’attends à monde ouvert avec si possible un mode multijoueur en ligne ou on pourra choisir son camp du style skynet ou la résistance !
