Publisher Reef Entertainment and developer Bitmap Bureau have announced that the side-scrolling action game Terminator 2D: NO FATE has been delayed to October 31. The title was originally scheduled for release on September 5.
Read the official delay statement:
Terminator 2D: NO FATE will launch on October 31, 2025.
Coordinating and manufacturing the physical release proved to be a lengthier process than anticipated, resulting in the need to delay the game’s launch. We apologize and thank everyone for their patience.
This extension also allows the Bitmap Bureau team additional time to implement final refinements for the launch patch, ensuring all fans can experience the best version of T2D simultaneously. Therefore, this delay applies to both physical and digital editions of the game.
Since announcing T2D, the response has been absolutely incredible. To everyone who has shown support: thank you. We recognize this news is disappointing and appreciate your understanding.
Terminator 2D: NO FATE will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC (Steam, Epic Games Store).
Terminator 2D: NO FATE will now be releasing on October 31, 2025.
Coordinating and manufacturing the physical release has been a longer process than we anticipated, and as a result, we’ve had to delay the release of the game. We apologise, and thank you for bearing with us.…
