Game Description
Homefront Ultimate Edition, also known simply as Homefront, drops you into a future America under foreign occupation. You play as a resistance fighter trying to turn the tide against a North Korean invasion. It’s a first-person shooter with a mix of tight single-player missions and multiplayer battles. If you’ve ever wondered what it’d be like to fight for your own backyard, this game gives you a front-row seat. Sometimes gritty, sometimes straight-up intense, it doesn’t hold back.
What’s Homefront All About?
Set in 2027, after a major economic collapse, the game paints a picture of an occupied United States. You’re part of the resistance, taking on missions to disrupt the enemy and reclaim lost ground. It’s not just shoot and run—there’s a story here, penned by John Milius, one of the folks behind Apocalypse Now. Expect fierce firefights, tense stealth moments, and some unexpected twists.
Key Features
- Single-Player Campaign: Follow your squad through tough battles and personal moments.
- Multiplayer Action: Fight online on dedicated servers—team up or go solo.
- Big Arsenal: From trusty M16s to futuristic sniper rifles, pick what suits your style.
