Resistance 3


If you have to pick an evil alien overlord race to side with, you'd best pick the Chimera. Nobody does alien warfare quite like they do. They destroyed the Russian csar empire from within and conquered Europe in mere weeks. After some digging beaneath the North Atlantic, they overran Great Britain and two years later, their Chimeran fleet decimated the American coastlines. With humanity pushed to the brink of extinction and planet Earth under more strain than we could've ever put her in, the end is nigh.

This desperate, desolate, post-apocalyptic landscape is the backdrop for Insomniac's third game in the Resistance series. The war is over and guess what? - we lost. The Chimera have all but exterminated us, forcing us to seek shelter among the ruined cities and abandoned villages and turn to cannibalism. This bleak and hopeless setting is where your story begins. Can the Chimera finally be stopped and purged from this planet, or will it be us who will be wiped from the face of the Earth?
