However, the franchise is also getting its own game next month calledTerminator: Resistance, which is a first-person shooter developed in the Unreal engine.

The gameplay does look promising because of Unreal Engine 4; however, there are still a few things that might bother fans of the franchise. First of all, the game is developed byTeyon, the same studio that createdRambo: The Video Gamewhich didn’t do well at all. Second, the gameplay footage does not show anything new or unique, and it looks to be a bit generic and outdated; however, it remains to be seen how the game actually plays when it comes out.
This is not the first time the Terminator franchise will be getting its own game. There have been severalTerminatorgames released on a bunch of different platforms including, but not limited to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Xbox, PlayStation 2, NES, etc. However, none of the games in the series have stood out enough to become a classic like the first two movies, maybeTerminator: Resistancewill change all of that. Only time will tell how it fares when both the players and the critics get their hands on the game.
Terminator: Resistancewill launch on December 3 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
