Players take the role of main character Darius Mason, as they fight to save both humanity and themselves. Featuing both Single Player and Multiplayer, players will find new and exciting areas to wreak havok upon.
In a press email I received from THQ today they included some information on the just now announced game.
Half a century after the Red Faction resistance freed Mars, the red planet again becomes a battleground. Colonists struggle for survival in the underground mines after the surface is rendered uninhabitable. When Darius Mason, grandson of revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, unknowingly releases a long-dormant evil, Armageddon is unleashed on Mars. As settlements are torn asunder, only Darius and the Red Faction can save mankind. The battle will take them to the core of the storm-blasted planet through ice caves and lava flows until they are face to face against the unspeakable threat. Red Faction: Armageddon expands on the critically acclaimed, best-selling franchise with new, groundbreaking challenges. You are humanity’s last hope for survival.
I was also provided with the following screenshots, some of which I believe are exclusive at the present moment. The screens are in a HD resolution and click them for the bigger image;
The game launches March 2011 for PC, Xbox 360 and the Playstation 3. To tide you over til then, enjoy this High Definition trailer courtesy of GameRecord.
