Terminator Dark Fate Defiance Torrent is a real-time strategy game set in the Terminator Dark Fate universe. In the solo campaign, you assume the role of a commander within the Founders, a faction comprised of the remnants of the US military, leading your forces in a bid to thwart Legion’s scheme to eradicate humanity’s last survivors. Founders, Movement, and Legion in skirmish and multiplayer modes.
Dark Fate Defiance’s top comparison might be Relic Entertainment’s original series of Company of Heroes games, where players control small groups of soldiers in changing battlegrounds. Instead of leading World War 2 troops, though, you’ll guide a makeshift resistance team named The Founders, ex-soldiers of the dissolved US military lacking resources, manpower, or even a proper government to guide them. Meanwhile, Legion is a strong war machine producing various metallic threats, from classic T-800s to four-legged war dogs equipped with laser guns. This immediately makes things difficult for you, giving Dark Fate – Defiance a distinct survivalist vibe.
The game’s mission variety is another highlight, including tower defense-style battles and strategic reconnaissance adventures across vast maps filled with interesting local characters. However, regarding the story itself, don’t expect much expansion or standalone storytelling. Developer Slitherine’s stiff dialogue is still noticeable here, much like in Stargate: Timekeepers. The game’s main addition to Terminator lore appears to be a new human enemy faction: a guerrilla resistance group called The Movement.
Aside from the campaign, Dark Fate – Defiance also offers a few multiplayer and quick-play modes where players control Founder, Legion, or Movement factions in short battles against each other or AI opponents. It’s best seen as an opportunity to practice strategies learned from the main campaign. Although these modes might not have the longevity of other ongoing service games, they serve as a nice conclusion for those wanting more after the main campaign.
Players can deactivate weapon systems and save ammo. They can instruct vehicle drivers to exit and repair them when necessary. It’s crucial to find ways to refuel and re-arm and to focus on secondary objectives only when it’s safe, to avoid overextending a limited force. Robot enemies aren’t as lethal as in the movies, but they can overwhelm an unprepared position quickly. Rockets and solid artillery support are key to giving infantry a chance against them.
