THQ have just announced details of a new title in the Red Faction franchise. Red Faction Battlegrounds will be a fast paced multiplayer focused vehicular online combat game made available as a digital download on PSN and Xbox Live in 2011.
Developed by THQ Digital Studios UK with help from Volition pits four players in either split screen or online action in a variety of game modes.
Kevin Kraff, Vice President of Global Brand Management, THQ said. " The pick-up-and-play multiplayer action of Red Faction: Battlegrounds adds a completely new perspective to the acclaimed Red Faction franchise . Just as in other Red Faction games, you can pretty much blow up everything. Only this time, you do it with your friends using hulking mechs, armored tanks and combat walkers”.
Red Faction will be available to play later in the week at Gamescom at THQ’s booth. We will be reporting live from Gamescom all week so stay tuned for more thoughts on this later in the week
