Overview
Description

Freedom Fighters is a tactical third‑person shooter set in an alternate 1950s where the Soviet Union has invaded the United States. Players command a guerrilla squad, using cover, teamwork, and strategic planning to reclaim cities and inspire the populace. The game offers both a compelling single‑player campaign and robust multiplayer modes, allowing you to fight solo or coordinate with friends in various objective‑based matches.

Homefront: The Revolution is an open-world first-person shooter where you must ignite a second American Revolution in a brutal police state. Four years into a crushing military occupation, Philadelphia has become a ghetto patrolled by surveillance drones and armored forces. Fight alongside a growing Resistance cell through the bombed-out streets and badlands of the Red Zone. Utilize guerrilla tactics, scavenge and customize your arsenal on the fly, and inspire oppressed civilians to rise up against their occupiers in both single-player and co-operative modes.
