Evaluation
Red Faction is a 2009 re-release on Steam of the original 2001 first-person shooter. The store description focuses entirely on the base game's single-player campaign and multiplayer features — there is no mention of DLC, expansions, season passes, or any planned post-launch content. The only developer news post on record (July 3, 2018) is an announcement for a separate product, Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered Edition, and is not relevant to this game's development status. No DLC is listed. This game launched as a complete, standalone product with no post-launch content cycle, and nothing in the developer's communications suggests otherwise.
Evidence
Store description covers only the base game's original features — campaign levels, vehicles, weapons, and multiplayer. No DLC, expansions, or post-launch content mentioned.
Developer post announces Red Faction Guerrilla Re-Mars-tered Edition — a separate product — and is unrelated to this game's content status.
