The original Red Faction has been rated for the PlayStation 4 by the ESRB (Entertainment Software Ratings Board). THQ Nordic is listed as the company behind this rating, who has also been behind other old THQ properties coming to PlayStation 4 such as Destory All Humans!, Red Faction 2, and Darksiders II Deathinitive Edition.

Both Red Faction and Red Faction II have already been rated by the European ratings board PEGI for PlayStation 4, but neither have yet to be released.

Red Faction released on the PlayStation 2 in 2001 from Volition and THQ. Both the original and its sequel were released on the PlayStation 3 as PS2 Classics, although a PlayStation 4 release would mean trophies, and better emulation for display on high definition televisions.
