In March 2021, developer Teyon and publisher Reef Entertainment will release Terminator: Resistance - Enhanced, an upgraded version of the first-person shooter that's coming to PlayStation 5. The title initially hit store shelves in late 2019, bringing to market what many a fan argues is probably the best Terminator game to date.
Despite launching a mere two weeks after Terminator: Dark Fate's theatrical release, the shooter does not in any way, shape, or form count as a movie tie-in for the more recent films. Instead, the narrative in Resistance follows that of the property's original two films, both of which were directed and co-written by James Cameron. Interestingly, this wasn't developer Teyon's first time tackling a licensed video game. The Polish-based studio also produced the poorly received Rambo: The Video Game, a rail-shooter that released for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 in 2014.
Evidently, Teyon had much better luck with Terminator: Resistance, as the shooter will receive an enhanced version for PlayStation 5 on March 26, 2021. According to Dark Horse's Zero Day comic, four character cards, and a collector's box.
The publisher further confirmed that all who own the PS4 version of Terminator: Resistance will gain access to the upgrade on PS5 for no extra cost. Last-gen players shouldn't feel left out, though. Both the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Terminator: Resistance are slated to receive the aforementioned update patch and the difficulty mode in the first quarter of 2021.
Many fans will no doubt be pleased to see Terminator: Resistance get a new lease on life. It launched during the usually packed holiday season in late 2019, thus becoming overshadowed by a slew of heavy-hitters. This particular shooter still managed to provide players with a special experience in its own right.
PlayStation s who don't already own the game would do well to keep a close eye on sales of the PS4 version to take full advantage of the free upgrade come March. While Terminator: Resistance isn't presently featured in the PS Store's Holiday 2020 sale, it could very well receive a discount in the near future.
Terminator: Resistance is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One; the enhanced version comes to PS5 on March 26, 2021.
