- Homefront 2 isn’t the finished article you see. NPCs walk into walls. Animations are janky. Everything’s got an incomplete vibe, like Dambusters downed tools at lunch and disappeared down the pub for a not-so-swift pint. It's not beyond hope though, extensive patching could salvage a decent game out of this. My fear is that the damage is already well and truly done.
Joffy S · Jun 13, 2016 Reviewed on PCRead full review - An open-world waiting for you to conquer it, with varied types of areas offering varied types of gameplay. You don't even have to pay attention to the silly story! You just have to want to take over the map.
Tom Chick · Jun 13, 2016 Reviewed on PCRead full review - If you can force yourself to sit down and claw your way through—professional incentive was my personal motivator—the goal the developers sought can be understood. It’s just a shame that those goals are far too weighted down by technical issues and a lackluster narrative. Claims that there are patches right around the corner could give the game the adjustment it needs to be playable, but it is simply not worth the commitment of time or money as it is now.
Nick Plessas · May 27, 2016 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Sometimes my job is to play bad games so you don't have to. Homefront: The Revolution is one of those games.
Jeb Haught · May 25, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - It is a dull game that fails to offer more than passing enjoyment, hitching and glitching all along the way. It offers a middling co-operative mode in a field filled with games trying to innovate in that space. It struggles to say anything--even something bombastic and cartoonish--about crisis, nationality, or revolution. It tries to roar America, but instead coughs out a few, unintelligible grunts.
Austin Walker · May 24, 2016 Reviewed on PC, PS4, XB1Read full review - Two steps forward, one step back. I want to like Homefront Revolution more than I do. It’s got a good heart and some solid ideas buried behind the mess, and most players won’t be willing to put up with it. Those that do will find some solid moments of gameplay strewn throughout, but if it’s worth their time is ultimately up to them.
Justin Celani · May 23, 2016 Reviewed on XB1Read full review - Homefront: The Revolution has more problems than I can list, including some illogical design decisions I couldn’t wrap my head around. But it truly executes on some of the good ideas it presents, and redeems itself in its latter half to an extent. Sadly this is not enough to justify 15 to 20 hours of an underwhelming experience on the gameplay side, even with some decent characters and a semi-interesting plot.
Ahmed Mohamed · May 20, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - There’s some good ideas and nice execution beneath Homefront: The Revolution’s terrible performance and dodgy design. Very occasionally, everything lines up to make for a unique experience. However, the fact that the game was even released in this poor state is terrible.
Lee Bradley · May 20, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Overall, Homefront: The Revolution is a game that I would have a hard time recommending right now. There's a solid shooter in there if you've enjoyed similar titles, but the technical issues it has are unpalatable, especially one as egregious as to keep me from completing the game. If it gets patched up and drops in price a little bit, it would be a much easier sell, but as it stands currently I can't give it the full thumbs up, and that makes me sad considering the hell the dev team was dragged through to bring it to us.
Reagan Cox · May 19, 2016 Reviewed on PS4Read full review - Homefront: The Revolution was fun early on, when I was experimenting with new weapon modifications and attachments, practicing sneakery and learning the tricks to breaking into and capturing safehouses. But I lost interest once I learned I was best off ignoring its stealth systems and most of its guns, and the story isn’t riveting enough to accommodate hours of running past the same patrols without so much as a different-colored landscape to look at.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
Four years into the brutal military occupation, America is on its knees. Philadelphia - once the birthplace of Independence - has become a ghetto, where surveillance drones and armoured patrols keep the population at heel, crushing any dissent with savage force. Her once-proud citizens live in a police state, forced to collaborate just to survive, their dreams of freedom long since extinguished. But in the badlands of the Red Zone, in the bombed out streets and abandoned subways, a Resistance is forming. A guerrilla force, determined to fight for their freedoms despite overwhelming odds and ignite the second American Revolution. But Freedom always has a price…
