Red Faction Armageddon Free Download for PC is a third-person shooter video game developed by Volition, Inc. and published by THQ. It is the fourth installment in the Red Faction series, and was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in various countries around the world between June 7 and June 10, 2011. Poor sales resulted in THQ's decision to stop making games in the Red Faction franchise and negatively impacted their financial quarter. The rights to the series are now owned by Nordic Games.
Red Faction: Armageddon focuses on destructible environments. The player must reclaim cultist fortifications on the disaster-ravaged surface of the planet and defend colonists from hostile Martian creatures in the ancient mines and chasms beneath it and cleansing infestations from all structures.
Using the Magnet Gun, Darius, the main protagonist, fires first at one object, then at a second object, and then the first object rockets toward the second. Red Faction Armageddon Download free Full Version.
The Nano-Forge returns, having been passed down through two generations of the Mason family. Darius' father has incorporated the tool with a function that reverses any and all destruction dealt to man-made objects. The Nano-Forge will also feature an ability known as Impact, which discharges an incredibly powerful burst of force which can blow away structures and throw enemies off their feet.
Darius' Nano-Forge, weapons and armor are all upgradeable, improving their efficiency, unlocking new abilities, and altering their appearances.
At E3, Volition debuted the LEO exosuit, «a robotic suit with powerful weaponry whose biggest strength nonetheless appears to be its ability to crash through structures with little effort. Darius piloted the LEO at full speed through a horde of aliens, splattering them on contact, and then brought down an infested building by crashing through its walls.»
The game features co-operative multiplayer for up to four players, called Infestation, which features two different game modes, survival where you need to survive against waves of increasingly challenging alien attackers and defensive where you need to defend areas from attack.
In a six-part YouTube series, the game's main storyline developer Leo and Max revealed «Ruin mode». This mode consists of nothing but «blowing stuff up». Players can either take all the time they want, or cause as much destruction as possible within one minute. The latter mode will have supported worldwide and friend leaderboards.

However, Ruin mode will only be available to players who buy the game new or purchase a code online, as players are given the choice to either play the demo of the mode or enter a code using the methods stated above.
Plot
A group of Cultists, a splinter faction of the Marauders led by Adam Hale, attacked and captured a terraformer that controls the weather of Mars. Red Faction forces, led by Frank Winters along with Darius Mason, made an assault on the terraformer. Unfortunately, Adam, disguised as one of the Red Faction, tricks Darius and destroys the terraformer. The destruction of the terraformer results in catastrophic weather which forces the entire population underground.
Fast-forward to a few years later, Darius now works as a freelance miner along with a Marauder friend named Kara within the town of Bastion. Darius begins to leave Bastion for a job when Kara tells him not to go due to a major storm coming and her having a bad feeling about the job. Mason shrugs it off as nothing to worry about. She then tosses him a Benjamin Franklin medallion which she explains «suppose to ward of lighting strikes» for good luck. When Darius is sent to do the mining job, he becomes trapped in the tunnels. At the same time, he learns that he was tricked again by Adam Hale and the cultists who disguised themselves as archaeologist hiring Mason to open a seal that releases an alien race called the Plague. Which, coincidentally happens to dwell in the same tunnels. After falling off a cliff that left him unconscious for three days, Darius, guided by SAM (Situation Awareness Module), escapes the tunnels into an underground mining colony where he finds the Plague attacking the citizens. Grouping up with survivors and some Red Faction soldiers, he escorts an ambulance convoy to Bastion with the help of a L.E.O exosuit that is found along the way.

Darius then arrives at Bastion to discover that the town is overrun by the Plague, with all the injured holed up in the center of town. Darius helps out, only to have them turn on him when they find out that he was involved in the release of the Plague. As he escapes to the surface, the pursuers following him are attacked by the alien race. The Red Faction, along with Frank, shows up and arrests him, but are attacked, at which point Darius joins the Red Faction and helps fend off the Plague. Informed that Hale is involved with releasing the Plague, Frank let's Darius know where the Cultists are hiding. Darius assaults them in a walker with Kara, and discovers Hale trying to tame the Plague. Darius then attempts to kill Hale, but fails. Because of this, he tries to escape in a minecart. Hale pursues Darius with his walker. Eventually the walker is crippled by a landslide. Darius takes out his Magnet Gun to finish Hale by drop pieces of the ceiling on him, with the result being Hales decapitation. He is then picked up by Kara and escape in a walker to a Marauder city where they hope to learn more about the Plague. They discover a secret entrance that is filled with lava, but it's inaccessible, so Darius and Frank take a barge to the machine used to raise the lava, and destroy it to lower the lava. Darius and Kara then head through the tunnels to find the Queen, but Kara is killed when they get out to repair a leg. With Kara gone, he takes a personal vendetta against the Queen. He finds her, and in the fight, badly weakens her. Enraged, she begins her ascent to the surface in order to take it over. At this point, SAM discovers that the Plague cannot withstand pure air. Hearing this, Darius with the help from the nano forge needs to repair the terraformer to bring back the atmosphere. S.A.M explains due to their underground depth they would have to break surface fast to stop Plague from over running Mars. Mason decides the quickest way to the surface is to latch on one of the Queens tentacles during her ascension. He finds the terraformer that Hale destroyed, traverses it's Plague infestation within and repairs it, killing off the Plague. The Red Faction along with Marauder forces soon arrives at the terraformer to secure the area. After a brief conversation with Frank, Mason looks at the terraformer to see the clouds start to dissipate after years of dust storms. A thunderstorm starts to appear off at a distance and sunlight breaking through the clouds. Darius pulls out the Franklin medallion he received from Kara and stares at it. SAM warns Darius of high concentration of radiation coming into the atmosphere to which Mason replies «Easy there genius. That's the sun.».
