“The Hope for Humanity lies in Change.”

The war for survival has entered a brutal new phase. Publisher and developer Slitherine has officially launched Evolution — the major story expansion for Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance — available right now on Steam. Legion has evolved. So must we.

The Fight Moves North — A New Campaign Unfolds

Lieutenant Alex Church leads the Resistance deep into the frozen wilderness of Canada, chasing hope: new allies, untapped resources, and a way to finally turn the tide against the relentless machine army. Across eight story-driven missions, you’ll traverse snow-laden forests, abandoned mining outposts, and Legion’s most secret experimental facilities — uncovering a terrifying new evolution in the enemy’s ranks.

Legion Has Evolved — Meet the Rippers

Legion isn’t just building more machines — it’s building deadlier ones. The Rev 6.5, known to the Resistance as the Rippers, is a terrifying new threat engineered for speed, pursuit, and devastating close-quarters combat. These sleek, bladed machines sprint across the battlefield, leap onto vehicles, and tear through infantry at point-blank range. Firearms alone won’t stop them — you must adapt, or you will fall.

Humanity Evolves Too — Augment Your Forces

The Resistance answers this threat with its own revolution: human augmentation technology. Soldiers can now undergo voluntary enhancements, boosting their speed, armour, and melee prowess to meet the Rippers on equal footing. The expansion introduces full melee combat to the RTS — positioning, cover, and firepower remain vital, but now your best troops can charge in and meet the machines blade-to-blade.

• 8-Mission Campaign — Follow Church, Silas, and Unit 1462 into Canada’s frozen frontline
