Crytek UK to Develop First Person Shooter, Homefront 2
Played Homefront? At all interested in the game? Well now you might be interested in the second game as Crytek UK will be responsible for developing it according to Euro Gamer. The game is a first person shooter set in a post-apocalyptic USA where an EMP has devastated the country with there being resistance fighters against a ”Greater Korean Republic” occupation. The game will be made with CryEngine 3. Hopefully a tiny flavour of the old Free Radical magic will make its way through.
Selecting Crytek to take Homefront forward underscores our strategy of working with the industry’s best talent. Homefront’s unique setting and storyline captivated gamers the world over. With Crytek’s industry leading technology and legendary experience in the FPS genre, we’re supremely confident that the next Homefront will deliver that AAA-quality experience that players demand.
Danny Bilson, EVP Core Games, THQ.
We see Homefront as a really strong universe that has a lot of potential and that has been expertly created and marketed by THQ. We believe that bringing our level of quality, creativity and production values to the next Homefront title, creates an opportunity for both THQ and Crytek to deliver a truly blockbuster game. It’s really important to us that THQ has the faith in giving us a lot of creative freedom over one of its most important properties to allow us to bring the Homefront world to life in a new and innovative way.
