A New Direction for Terminator: Survivors
In a surprising update, reports suggest that Terminator: Survivors will now be a fully single-player experience, marking a departure from its original multiplayer co-op concept.

Expectations and Future Plans
The transformation from a cooperative multiplayer to a single-player format reflects the studio’s commitment to creating a more immersive portrayal of humanity’s struggle against Skynet.
