Red Faction II Cover

Red Faction: II is the second game in the Red Faction series developed by Volition Inc. and published by THQ Inc.

Plot

The game, much like its predecessor, has basis in the real-life Red Army Faction; many storytelling themes that were prevalent in Red Faction are more pronounced in this sequel.

Red Faction II is set in the year 2163, 5 years after the events of Red Faction. On Mars the nanotechnology developed by Capek has been claimed by the Earth Defense Force. With this advanced level of military technology, the EDF commences a reorganization of the Ultor Corporation with a particular focus on enhanced supersoldiers and suitable weaponry. However, the research that was done by Capek in his laboratories in the first game has been consequently stolen by other militant groups and assorted criminal terrorist organizations. The research has changed hands in the criminal underworld many times. The player is introduced into the role of an explosives expert codenamed "Alias", as he embarks on a Special Operations mission to claim the research data for Republic of the Commonwealth.
