New Retail Releases: Red Faction: Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered Edition, Jurassic World: Evolution
A classic episode of The Simpsons once encouraged 4th of July revelers to celebrate the independence of our nation by blowing up a small part of it. That sentiment is very much on display in a pair of games that are coming to retail shelves this week.
First up, THQ Nordic will head back to Mars in Red Faction: Guerrilla – Re-Mars-tered Edition, a PS4 and Xbox One re-release of the explosive action game from 2009:
Set 50 years after the climactic events of the original Red Faction, Red Faction: Guerrilla allows players to take the role of an insurgent Fighter with the newly re-established Red Faction movement as they battle for liberation from the oppressive Earth Defense Force. Red Faction: Guerrilla still defines the limits of destruction-based gameplay with a huge open-world, fast-paced guerrilla-style combat, and true physics-based destruction.
Also available this week is the retail launch of Jurassic World: Evolution for the PS4 and Xbox One. Life may… uh… find a way, but rampaging dinos are always good for a few fireworks:
Place yourself at the heart of the Jurassic franchise and build your own Jurassic World. Take charge of operations on the legendary islands of the Muertes archipelago and bring the wonder, majesty and danger of dinosaurs to life. Build for Science, Entertainment, or Security interests in an uncertain world where life always finds a way. Control the big picture with deep management tools or go hands-on to confront challenges on the ground or in the air. Expand your islands and choose your own journey in an all-new narrative featuring iconic characters from across the franchise and decades of Jurassic lore at your fingertips.
That’s all for now, but we’ll be back later this week with a look at all the new additions to the PlayStation Store, Xbox Games Store, and Nintendo eShop.
Red Faction: Guerrilla – Re-Mars-tered Edition will be available on July 3
