Deep Silver community manager Maurice Tan responded to fans over on NeoGAF about the current fate of Homefront: The Revolution, which was being developed at Crytek UK, formerly known as Free Radical.
The IP and studio was bought by Deep Silver, and is now called Dambuster Studios. They promise it’s not going to ”another Prey 2 or Duke Nukem Forever.” It’s still set for a 2015 release so far.
”Homefront: The Revolution is still in development, now under our wing at Dambuster Studios (formerly Crytek UK),” began Maurice Tan, known as Professor Pew on NeoGAF.
”Sometimes we get questions from fans if it’s going to be another Prey 2 or Duke Nukem Forever. But rest assured that the team at Dambuster is still working hard on the game and it’s not going to be vaporware.” It’s been a long journey for the Homefront franchise which started under THQ.
Homefront: The Revolution releases on PC, Xbox One and PS4 in 2015. It’s an open-world first-person shooter, unlike the original which was a linear corridor experience. It’s set four years after the first game in the city of Philadelphia, and we play as resistance fighter Ethan Brady.
Support GameWatcher and order Homefront: The Revolution from Games Republic where it’s priced at 10% off for £39.99.
