One game is a two-player co-op in which players enter a room and must kill enemies, before advancing to the next room to repeat the process. The GBA version includes two multiplayer games. The player takes control of the Terminator, and can use the machine's red-colored scan mode to identify hidden objects and people. The Game Boy Advance (GBA) version is a third-person shooter with 12 missions, played from an isometric perspective. There is also a fist fight sequence in some levels which engage the main character against either an enemy cyborg or the T-X, which is the main antagonist of the film. There are levels that require the player to protect allied characters from armed enemies. In the home console versions, the player plays the role of the T-850 and in some levels shoot their way through enemy cyborgs or drones with a selection of weapons such as assault rifles, rocket launchers or grenade launchers. Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines follows the film's basic story.
