EGX, the UK’s largest games event, and Deep Silver announced today that open-world shooter Homefront: The Revolution will be playable at this year’s EGX (from September 24th to September 27th).
Deep Silver Dambuster Studios’ Homefront: The Revolution throws players into an alternate near future dystopia, where a humanitarian crisis has brought the USA to its knees under the brutal military control of a globally dominant Korean corporation.

However, in the ruined outskirts of the city, resistance is getting stronger…
