Darius must fight his way back to the people and find a way to contain the aliens before it is too late. Contracted for a mining job, Darius is once again deceived by Hale and unintentionally releases a race of ferocious aliens. 5 years later, the inhabitants have constructed underground caves and towns. Darius Mason (you) is indirectly held responsible, due to failing to prevent the attack because he was tricked by Hale. It is a core feature and immediately sets the game apart for better or worse.įifty years on from Red Faction: Guerilla, an attack on the terraformer (atmosphere controlling device) by the terrorist Adam Hale forces the Mars settlers to relocate underground. There is a certain pleasure with collapsing a building into a cloud of dust with a well placed explosion. Of course not every 'thing' in Armageddon is destructible, but enough is.
