Red Faction: Armageddon

Red Faction: Armageddon is set on Mars, half a century after the Red Faction resistance and its Marauder allies freed the planet from the Earth Defense Force. A mysterious lethal force threatens the Colonists, who fled underground after the destruction of the Terraformer plunged Mars into super-tornados and lightning storms. Five years later, Darius Mason, grandson of revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, works from Bastion as a miner, scavenger and mercenary.

The threat on Mars

After Darius is tricked into reopening a shaft in an old Marauder temple, he releases a long-dormant evil. Colonist and Marauder settlements are torn apart, and Darius and the Red Faction must fight to save humanity. Their battle crosses the storm-blasted surface and leads beneath Mars, where they face the threat's source among frozen glaciers and rivers of broiling magma.

Tools of destruction

Darius can use the Nano Forge to unleash massive concussive blasts or rebuild downed Colonist defenses with Geo-Mod 2.0. The game also includes Ruin Mode, with competitive and casual destruction-based modes.

Game modes

• Infestation Mode: Survive waves of enemy hordes in a cooperative, objective-based mode for 1–4 players.
• Ruin Mode: Take part in competitive or casual modes focused on destruction.
