Red Faction: Armageddon is a new chapter in Volition's Martian shooter saga, releasing from THQ on May 31, 2011 for the PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Red Faction: Armageddon moves beneath the surface of Mars as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As Darius Mason, players fight to save humanity from an even greater evil that threatens to extinguish all life on the planet. Leveraging Volition's groundbreaking Geo-Mod 2.0 technology, the game offers never-before-seen physics-based weaponry that redefines gameplay in the shooter genre. Utilizing Darius' Nano Forge abilities, players are presented with a wealth of new 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 epic battles in both the single-player campaign and multiplayer co-operative modes. The story resumes half a century after the Red Faction resistance freed Mars. 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.
