Overview
Description

Homefront is a cinematic first-person shooter set in a 2027 America that has been crippled by an energy crisis and occupied by a North Korean military force. Players step into the shoes of a civilian resistance fighter, navigating suburban battlegrounds and urban environments to take back their homeland. Crafted with a compelling single-player story by John Milius, the game combines intense infantry combat with vehicle-based warfare. Alongside its narrative campaign, Homefront delivers a robust multiplayer experience that plunges players into large-scale warfare for control of a land stripped of freedom.

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.
