Developer encouraged by progress on shooter so far, says it plans to “reinvent” the franchise.
Development on upcoming military shooter Homefront 2 is progressing positively, Crytek general manager Nick Button-Brown said in the latest issue of Develop (via Videogamer).
“The team in Nottingham–Crytek UK–is making great progress on our reinvention of Homefront,” Button-Brown said.
He added that Crytek UK “has a number of projects we haven’t talked about yet,” though no further details were provided.
The 2011 original Crytek was developed by the since-shuttered Kaos Studios out of New York City and shipped 2.6 million copies.
Crytek purchased the Homefront franchise from THQ during the company’s bankruptcy auction earlier this year for $544,000.
Story details for Homefront 2 have not been divulged, though Crytek said previously that it intends to create a game that “takes the series to new heights.”
