Terminator 3 features film footage created specifically for the videogame and not available in the motion picture. The five-minute segment - filmed by director Jonathan Mostow and featuring Arnold Schwarzenegger - sheds new light on the origins of the Terminator. Footage from the feature film is also used liberally throughout the game to set up key situations and story-related elements.
The Terminator 3 videogame weaves in and out of the movie script as players face enemies from both the present - when the War of the Machines looms on the horizon - and the apocalyptic future. The game goes one step further by providing fans of the Terminator series with a deeper look into the movie’s universe and the role of the Terminator - a futuristic fighting machine reprogrammed to save humanity from the SkyNet holocaust.
Players face enemies from the wastelands of the future to present-day Los Angeles. Military bases and laboratories are two of the more than 20 locations found in the game. More than 20 futuristic and modern day weapons will be at the player’s disposal - including the SkyNet Arc-Laser and Tech-Com Micro Rocket Launcher.
The Terminator 3 videogame also allows players to engage in movie-like Terminator combat as they repeatedly face the killing machine known as the T-X. Smashing opponents into walls and massive two-handed chops are two of the dozens of moves in the Terminator’s arsenal.
A unique twist in the Terminator 3 story allows players to operate the Terminator before it was reprogrammed in the future to save John Connor. This allows players to test their skills against battle-hardened Tech Com special forces from the future as they utilize SkyNet’s advanced weaponry - including Future Killer tanks and fixed gun emplacements - in an effort to crush the last remnants of mankind.
The Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines videogame is being developed by Black Ops Entertainment and will make its debut on all major console systems in the fall.
