Red Faction: B.E.A.S.T. was a canceled third person shooter action video game that was originally being developed exclusively for the Wii, and would have been the fourth release in the Red Faction series. Prior to their shuttering by THQ, B.E.A.S.T. was in active development by Locomotive Games.

Gameplay

The game, as revealed by a leaked video, was to be a third person shooter. The game was to be designed around use of the Wii Remote and was slated to have incorporated Wii MotionPlus technology. It was to feature a cover system with similarities to Red Faction: Guerrilla, and when the game was revealed, earned positive comparisons to Gears of War's well-received cover system.

The game would have integrated series staple destruction capabilities, however it is unknown whether the game was to have used a modified form of the Geo-Mod engine, or a different engine all together.

Development

B.E.A.S.T. was never officially announced, but a trailer and screenshots were leaked on January 15, 2011, which confirmed the games' one-time existence.
