Terminator & Conan Are Back In Video Games!

Arnold Schwarzenegger has been no stranger to the world of video games. Whether it be Total Recall on the Nintendo Entertainment System or even the fan-favorite T2: The Arcade Game. For us, nothing gives greater pleasure than to play in the shoes of Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Mortal Kombat 11

The Terminator character has been featured in a variety of games. When Terminator Dark Fate came out in 2019, Arnold’s T-800 was featured in Mortal Kombat 11. This game had the likeness of Arnold Schwarzenegger, but the voice over was with Chris Fox. Some of Arnold’s famous catch phrases are featured, such as, You Are Terminated, Big Mistake, and I’m Back - to name of few.

Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns

Fast forward to 2025 and two famous characters are now featured in the new Mortal Kombat game, Mortal Kombat: Khaos Reigns. The playable characters for this game are the T-1000 from Terminator 2: Judgment Day and Conan The Barbarian. The Conan character was just released on January 21st and the T-1000 character will be available between March 11th and March 25th of this year. This game is available on PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X and S, and Microsoft PCs.

 

With Conan, this character strikes a strong resemblance of Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1982’s  Conan The Barbarian. The voice over was again covered by Chris Cox from the previous game. Some of the famous quotes include Crush Your Enemies and The Riddle of Steel. What better way to play him in a brutal match against the war gods. Crom!

 

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 & Warzone

Every year Call of Duty is released with new stories and different game plays. Arnold Schwarzenegger’s T-800 character from 1984’s The Terminator and Endoskeleton are playable characters. This is part of the  "Tracer Pack: The Terminator Ultra Skin x2 Bundle".

 

The T-800 is what I call the Tech-Noir Terminator. This is when the terminator is wearing the clothes off the punkers he killed at the Griffith Observatory.

The Terminator Event is a limited-time event in Black Ops 6 where players can collect a specific number of Skulls to exchange for exclusive free rewards.

With all these great additions to play your favorite characters as The Terminator or Conan, what character would you like to play as? What do you think the next Arnold Schwarzenegger game be? Will King Conan be turned into a story-driven video game or will it one day be on the big screen at last? Only Crom knows.
