THQ details Red Faction: Guerrilla as ‘open-world’ third-person shooter

THQ’s confirmation of third entry in the sci-fi series Red Faction earlier in February was decidedly light on details beyond the fact that development duties were once again being handled by Volition and that the game would cater to players on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. THQ has now revealed that the upcoming sequel will adopt a numberless title, Red Faction: Guerrilla, and will feature a return to Mars 50 years after the last game with an environment described as “open-world” — but then again what isn’t these days?
The biggest change, however, is the series’ move from first to third person, with THQ’s Brad Carraway describing the gameplay as focused on “fast-paced guerrilla warfare style combat” and “true physics-based destruction.” We’re trying to look impressed, but again it’s more rare to find a game these days that doesn’t boast some level of physics-based shenanigans than not. “Robust” multiplayer modes are also promised, but by now the ordinariness of it all has started to make our eyes glaze over as we wait for Red Faction: Guerrilla’s release sometime during THQ’s 2009 fiscal year.
