‘Terminator’ Rises Next Year On iOS and Android
Plarium is bringing Terminator: Genisys to iOS and Android devices early next year with a free-to-play clan-based MMO based on the film. Set at the very beginning of the Robo-Revolution, after Skynet initiated a nuclear apocalypse that effectively ended the world as we know it. To survive, what’s left of humanity is forced to come together as The Resistance, until inner turmoil over dwindling resources puts the already shaky alliance in jeopardy.
In the mobile strategy game, players will take control of a Resistance Commander or a Skynet Command Node as the opposing forces clash over the charred landscape Earth has become.
“Mobile games have incredible potential to expand the universe of characters and experiences we have created for a movie and provide audiences and fans with a brand new perspective on our content,” said Jesse Sisgold, COO at Skydance Media. “Plarium has had great success in creating state-of-the-art MMO titles and we look forward to working with them to bring our Terminator franchise to mobile devices in highly engaging new ways.”
Plarium specializes in mobile MMOs, like Vikings: War of Clans, and the Stormfall and Total Domination series. In September, the company announced its plans to bring Aliens vs. Predator to its popular Facebook game Soldiers Inc..
“We all grew up on the Terminator franchise as kids, and bringing the essence of Terminator Genisys to a game together with the innovative team at Skydance is a great aspiration we took on,” added Leonard Frankel, Head of Business Development for Plarium. “In this game we will call upon our players to pick sides and make history: help humanity prevail or crush it. This will be Epic!”
Wipe out the human race, or save it from extinction. Recent world events might make that a tough choice.

Bloody Disgusting and Creep I.E. Con Screening ‘Child’s Play’ with Brad Dourif, Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent
Looking for a big event to kick off your Summerween?
Creep I.E. Con, one of Southern California’s biggest horror themed conventions, returns for an Aftermath in 2026 — two months earlier than usual! This weekend, the Ontario Convention Center will house over 30 celebrity guests, 170 vendors, and all kinds of tricks and treats courtesy of Bloody Disgusting.
The main event is Saturday night at the Creep I.E. Cinema featuring a screening of 1988’s Child’s Play with stars Brad Dourif, this week’s Emmy-nominee Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent. Note: This is a separately ticketed event within the weekend, so be sure to secure your tickets for the screening and Q&A before they’re all gone.
Beyond the silver screen, Bloody Disgusting will also be hosting panels with stars of the Scary Movie franchise (Tori Spelling, Lochlyn Munro, Simon Rex, Jon Abrahams); return to Spooky World with David Bertolino; take a trip to Woodsboro with Hayden Panettiere; revisit Tales from the Crypt with John Kassir; and go toe to toe with Danny Trejo.
That’s not all. On Saturday at noon PST, we’re hosting an exclusive photo opportunity at our Bloody Disgusting booth with the titular puppet behind Pinocchio Unstrung. Later that afternoon, Eli Roth’s Ice Cream Man will be passing out free cold sweets outside at the top of every hour while supplies last.
It all goes down this Friday, July 10th to Sunday, July 12th — at the Ontario Convention Center in Ontario, California. Tickets are selling out fast — in fact, all VIP passes are sold and off the table — so secure your passes ASAP before it’s too late. After all, you don’t want to miss the first real horror event of the year!
