Publisher Reef Entertainment and developer Teyon have announced Terminator: Resistance Enhanced for the PlayStation 5. It will launch on March 26, 2021.

Terminator: Resistance Enhanced Announced for PS5

Here is an overview of the game:

Terminator: Resistance Enhanced is a new version of Terminator: Resistance taking advantage of the new capabilities of the PlayStation 5 console. Jump back into the action with Jacob Rivers and experience his story from lowly private to hero of the Resistance once more, while enjoying improved framerates and graphical fidelity, faster load times, and the new hardware features of the DualSense controller. Terminator: Resistance Enhanced will also contain updates brought to the title on PC (Steam), as well as the brand new “Infiltrator Mode” which sees players get under the skin of the series’ iconic T-800 series Infiltrator.

Key Features:

  • A fully updated version of the main game including balance and difficulty patches previously released on the PC. Players who own a PlayStation 4 version of the game will also receive a free upgrade to the PlayStation 5 version.
  • New “Infiltrator Mode” in which players can get under the skin of a T-800 series Infiltrator unit and strike out against Resistance forces.
  • A range of visual improvements taking advantage of the PlayStation 5’s more powerful hardware, including upscaled 4K resolution and locked 60 frames per second, higher resolution textures, higher polygon counts, tessellation, improved lighting and dynamic shadows, improved post-processing (antialiasing, bloom, and more), and more detailed particle effects.
  • A variety of features new to PlayStation 5 including Game Activities which can be used to track the player’s progress in missions and trophies, DualSense adaptive triggers for weaponry, and color shifting within the DualSense light bar to reflect the player’s health.
  • Four-times faster load times on average.
  • Two physical editions available for the PlayStation 5 version of Terminator: Resistance Enhanced: a Standard Edition, and a Collector’s Edition, which includes a Steel Book, two-part hardback comic book “Zero Day” from Dark Horse (comic text in English only, previously available in digital format with the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game), as well as four character art cards and a collectors box.
  • A paid downloadable content expansion with new narrative content will also be available in Summer 2021 for the PlayStation 5 and PC versions of the game.

Terminator: Resistance launches for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC in Europe in November 2019 and North America in December 2019.

This is a great game, for the size of the team and the IP, in my opinion, its the best Terminator game ever made. Good to see it getting better treatment. This is a movie based game done right.

@KratosLives....there is a model of someone else you'd probably recognize but it'd be a bit of a spoiler. (If you wish to know I can write it on your profile wall lol)

This is "The Little Game that Could". I hope they make good money with this so they can tackle another IP. I wouldn't mind an Alien game from these guys.

It came out last year and got terrible reviews so I doubt this version is going to be much better.

Silly me I read the last paragraph without the last line.

Terminator: Resistance launches for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC in Europe in November 2019 and North America in December

So I thought it was still going to launch because of the "time" used on the phrase.

It's a far better Terminator game than the last few, I'll tell you that.

Reviews weren't exactly fair to the game, but fans (myself included) seem to love it. It's def got great atmosphere.

Sounds like the opposite of Terminator: Dark Fate. Critics mostly liked it but fans hated it lol

Surprisingly its actually a very fun game. It's no AAA budget game/nor had a large team so as long as you don't have extremely high expectations then you'll probably enjoy it. If you're a fan of the series I would recommend this. I believe they're adding a new (free?) DLC where you'll be playing in a Terminator's perspective which I'm actually excited to go back and play it, that's how fun it was.

It sounds a lot better than the critics made it out to be. I'll have to check it out at some point.
