Volition, best known for its Red Faction and Saint's Row games, may be working on a game titled Agents of Mayhem.

The title was leaked by Twitter user "Nerd Leaks," who spilled a few documents giving what appears to be near-conclusive evidence of the title. The first document is a trademark filed by Koch Media, Volition's parent company, earlier this week.

Other mentions of Agents of Mayhem have been cropping up. Actor/stuntman Brandon Molale, who played a role in L.A. Noire, listed the game on his resume (via GameSpot). According to the listing, Molale did work for various characters in the game and listed representatives from Volition as references.

Animator John Velazquez also listed Agents of Mayhem on his resume.

Given the time of year, we don't expect Volition to confirm or deny the report until E3 rolls around next month.
