Resistance 3 is a 2011 first-person shooter video game developed by Insomniac Games and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 3. It is the third installment in the Resistance series and the last to be developed by Insomniac Games. Resistance 3 is the first in the series to support 3D and PlayStation Move and was the first to introduce the PSN Pass program. The game shifts away from the military aspect of Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2 and takes on a post-apocalyptic survival-horror feel.
Resistance 3 received generally positive reviews from critics, some of whom deemed it the best in the series, but the game sold poorly and was deemed a commercial failure. On April 8, 2014, the Resistance 3 online servers, along with those for Resistance: Fall of Man and Resistance 2, were shut down by Sony.
