Red Faction XBLA/PSN game revealed

THQ Digital has revealed a downloadable Red Faction arena combat game for PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade.

Subtitled Battlegrounds, the title will be played isometrically, involve four-player co-op and offer unlockable items for big-brother Red Faction release, Armageddon.

There's no word on date nor cost as yet.

THQ lifted the lid on Red Faction: Armageddon in June. The sequel's due in March 2011 and takes the IP underground, because Mars is an inhospitable place that makes Arnold Schwarzenegger's eyes pop out of his head.
