Homefront: The Revolution
At this point it’s starting to seem like Homefront is a cursed series. The first one didn’t do very well, probably because it wasn’t very good, and later on its publisher THQ died. Crytek bought the rights to the franchise and started working on Homefront: The Revolution, but quickly handed the rights off to Koch Media and Deep Silver due to money problems. Here’s hoping it doesn’t tank those two companies, because Homefront: The Revolution looks really promising.
Four years after the events of the first game, the eastern US is still under North Korean occupation. The player is part of the American resistance movement, and will wage urban guerrilla warfare in the sandbox city of Philadelphia. You’ll be able to establish bases and safehouses, recruit revolutionaries, steal and assemble your own arsenal and team up with other players online to form a Resistance Cell. Homefront: The Revolution is looking like the game the original should’ve been, and we can’t wait to try it out when it comes out on PC, PS4 and Xbox One sometime next year.
