Evolution is the next major story expansion for Terminator: Dark Fate – Defiance, the gritty real-time strategy experience set in the dark future of Dark Fate.
In Evolution, the war for humanity reaches a new frontier. Lieutenant Church leads the Resistance north into the frozen territories of Canada, searching for new allies and new hope. There, amid Legion’s mining operations and experimental research sites, a new kind of killing machine is taking shape. Engineered for speed and close-quarters combat, these advanced Revs mark the next step in Legion’s evolution and a glimpse of what may soon come.
But humanity is changing too. The Integrators believe that through hybrid augmentation, mankind can transcend its limits. Their discovery of Legion’s experimental technologies sparks an uneasy alliance with Church’s forces, but also ignites a struggle for control that will decide the future of both man and machine.
A New Single-Player Campaign
Fight across nine campaign missions that trace the next phase of the war.
Command both Resistance and Integrator forces as they battle Legion’s mining operations and research facilities across the frozen wastes of Canada.
Each mission brings new tactical challenges: sabotage operations, defensive sieges, and full-scale assaults. As you fight not just for survival, but for the right to define what humanity becomes.
The Next Step in Warfare
Technology itself evolves on the battlefield. Humans begin to integrate augmentation technology, enhanced muscle fibers, neural uplinks, and reflex boosters. Creating the first augmented soldiers capable of standing toe-to-toe with Legion’s most advanced machines.
New Units and Technologies
Harness new tools of destruction and defense as every faction upgrades its arsenal:
- Rev 6 mk 2 (Rev 6.5): an upgraded model equipped with bladed limbs and rapid melee assault systems.
- Augmented Soldiers: human fighters enhanced with early augmentation tech, capable of devastating close-quarters combat.
- Integrator Plasma Multi-Barrel Mortar: a powerful new artillery platform that rains plasma fire across wide areas.
- Legion Mini-Rover: fast reconnaissance drones designed for forward detection and pursuit.
- Leopard C2 MEXAS: Canadian tank that fills the gap between the Bradley and Abrams.
- LAV-AT: specialized armored anti-tank unit.
Every new unit brings new tactics and new opportunities to evolve your playstyle.
A Story of Transformation
Evolution is more than just the next campaign, it’s the turning point of the entire war.
Church, Silas, and 1462 each have their own vision for the future, but only one will shape what comes next.

Not the Resistance.
Not the Integrators.
Not humanity itself.
