Summary
An unannounced game calledTerminator 2D: No Fateleaked online via a prematurely published age rating. The mysterious title will seemingly add to the ever-growing catalog ofTerminatorvideo games, though details on it are currently scarce.
Thehistory ofTerminatorgamesis nearly as old as the franchise itself. It kicked off with the DOS action adventureThe Terminator, developed and published by Bethesda Softworks in 1991, seven years after the first film. Over two dozenTerminatorgames for everything from PC and consoles to arcades and pinball machines have followed over the next three decades.
Yet another game based on the iconic sci-fi franchise now seems to be on the horizon, according to a recent addition to the Australian Classification Board (ACB) database. The December 19 listing, first spotted byGematsu, references a game calledTerminator 2D: No Fate, which is described as being developed and published by Reef Entertainment. The British company was already involved in one video game adaptation of this IP, having served as the publisher for the2019 open-world shooterTerminator: Resistance, developed by Polish studio Teyon.
Terminator 2D: No Fate Age Rating Overview
The title mentioned in the newly emerged listing suggests thatNo Fatewill be a2D game, so presumably nothing likeTerminator: Resistance. The ACB gave the unannounced game a Mature (M) rating, which is one level below the Mature Accompanied (MA 15+) classification that the same regulator attached to Reef Entertainment’s firstTerminatorgame. The agency describedTerminator 2D: No Fate’s content as “moderate in impact,” citing the game’s unspecified themes, depictions of violence, and coarse language as the reasons for that label.
Terminator 2D: No Fate Is Reportedly Coming to Both PC and Consoles
The recently spotted age rating also indicates thatTerminator 2D: No Fateis planned to launch on a wide variety of systems. The PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC are all listed under the game’s supported platforms. The ACB classification doesn’t mention any other pertinent details about the upcoming title. The emergence of this age rating doesn’t necessarily confirm thatTerminator 2D: No Fateis close to release, but it does make such a scenario more likely. E.g., Reef’sTerminator: Resistancewas rated by the ACB on May 17, 2025, two weeks before its official announcement and two and a half months ahead of its release.
2 Terminator Games May Be Coming in 2025

This time frame would put it in the vicinity ofNacon’s open-world survival gameTerminator: Survivors, which was initially planned to debut in late October 2024 but was recently pushed back to 2025.
