Red Faction Armageddon Release Slips a Week

Red Faction: Armageddon was set for release at the end of May, 3rd of June internationally, but THQ just put out a note that the game will be delayed a week but game no real reason why.

On June 7, Red Faction: Armageddon is set to explode onto the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Windows PC in North America. Red Faction: Armageddon will ship internationally on June 10.

Additionally, THQ announced today the free playable demo of Red Faction: Armageddon is scheduled to be available on the Xbox 360 on May 3.

In the demo, consumers will be introduced to Darius Mason and fight their way through the Martian sewers and an oncoming alien infestation. Meanwhile, Darius must clear his name as the colonists have blamed him for unleashing the alien threat that has ravaged the underground cities of Mars. 

Players will have at their disposal the Nano Forge as they combat alien invaders with concussive blasts and core-shattering tremblers. Rebuild all that you destroy with the Nano Forge’s incredible Reconstruction ability. Finally, throw entire buildings at your enemies with Red Faction’s signature weapon, the Magnet Gun.

The Red Faction: Armageddon demo is also scheduled to be available on the PlayStation 3  on May 3 or once the PlayStation Network has been restored.
