Third-person shooter set on Mars in 2175, fifty years after a successful revolution. The planet's terraformer has been destroyed, forcing colonists underground into cave networks while storms ravage the surface. You're Darius Mason, a mercenary doing dangerous jobs in Bastion, the underground hub. After being tricked into opening a sealed Marauder temple shaft, you release a hostile force that starts destroying settlements. Combat takes you through underground colonies and onto the storm-blasted surface. The game focuses on using destructible environments and a repair tool that rebuilds cover and structures mid-fight. Volition's signature destruction tech lets you collapse tunnels, blow through walls, and reshape battlefields. It's the fourth Red Faction entry, shifting from Guerrilla's open-world guerrilla warfare to linear alien-threat scenarios beneath Mars.
