The Badlands is a wasteland of jagged rocks, dead settlements, and more. This region is described as "where terraforming went wrong". The Badlands are home to a mysterious group, called [[Marauders]], descendants of [[Ultor]] Scientists from the first [[Red Faction (Game)]] who appear in large numbers at night. The [[Earth Defense Force]] does not like going out there, but still maintains a substantial presence in the region.
