a
trailer with a look at the game and here's more on what this is all
about:
Redout: Space Assault puts you in control of a Super Orbital Recon
Fighter during the 2395 Colonization of Mars: dive in the fastest, most epic and
exciting arcade space battle you can experience. Outsmart, outmaneuver,
overpower, outclass your opponents in lightning-fast, adrenaline-inducing
single-player space combat.
You play as Leon Barret, ace fighter pilot of the Poseidon Security Forces. Here
at Poseidon Corp., we are trying to pave the way for the colonization of Mars,
as mankind is struggling for survival, split between a depleted hot Earth and a
cold, claustrophobic Lunar colony. Your job is to maintain order by eradicating
rebels and space pirates, facilitate our scientists' research while keeping them
safe, and protect all our personnel from the numerous external
threats.
