Red Faction: Armageddon, the follow-up to THQ and Volition’s Red Faction: Guerrilla, will be released in March 2010 for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC.
In Red Faction: Armageddon the action moves beneath the surface of Mars. As Darius Mason, players fight to save humanity from an even greater evil that threatens to extinguish all life on the planet.
Set half a century after the Red Faction resistance freed Mars, colonists struggle for survival in the underground mines after the surface is rendered inhabitable.
When Darius Mason, grandson of revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, unknowingly releases a long-dormant evil, Armageddon is unleashed on Mars. Only Darius and the Red Faction can save mankind.
Created using Volition’s Geo-Mod 2.0 technology, Red Faction: Armageddon promises never-before-seen physics-based weaponry that hopes to redefine gameplay in the shooter genre. Utilising Darius’ Nano Forge abilities, players are presented with a new range of strategic options including reconstruction technology and the Magnet Gun in their battle to save humanity.
From lava tubes to ice caves, gamers will discover a new playground for battles in both the single-player campaign and multiplayer co-operative modes.
