Homefront: The Revolution

Microsoft showed a new trailer for Homefront: The Revolution during Gamescom and announced Xbox One players are getting access to the beta this winter.

The trailer for the game showed a thoroughly invaded United States, as a child stood on stage to read pre-written propaganda claiming that the United States was now complacent with its Korean People's Army (KPA) invaders. During that speech, it cut to images of the KPA oppressing the people, and the rebellion fighting and setting off bombs remotely with their smartphones.

The actual gameplay opened with a rebel soldier driving a motorcycle through an invaded city through the streets and across roofs, avoiding the blue light of futuristic scanners. The soldier then got off the motorcycle, used a remote control RC car to blow up a group of soldiers, and played a hacking minigame to establish a communication relay, which rewards a fly-through the city,reminiscent of taking over the towers in Far Cry.

Homefront: The Revolution arrives in 2016.
