THQ has officially announced the development of Red Faction: Guerilla for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

This will be the third game in the Red Faction franchise with the original releasing on the PS2, and the sequel on the PS2 and Xbox.

The game is set fifty years after the events of the first Red Faction.

It has you playing as insurgent fighters against the oppressive Earth Defense Force.

"Red Faction: Guerrilla expands the signature destruction elements of the series and pushes the boundaries of next-gen gaming on a massive, terra-formed Mars where gamers can literally tear down the enemy EDF presence brick by brick," said Mike Kulas, president of Volition, Inc. "With a new 3rd person perspective, a full cover system that allows for guerrilla style tactics and a diverse planet to explore we’re excited to revitalize the gripping world of Red Faction for high-definition platforms."

It will ship on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 this year!
