Crytek "firm believers" in Homefront IP, "nothing has changed" on development
THQ's Homefront IP is now in the hands of Crytek as their Crytek UK office has been developing the sequel for the past 2 years, which is rumoured to be set in the United Kingdom this time around.
They're completely behind the franchise and its "potential to excite and amaze" gamers. The studio's time with THQ was "always positive" and this turbulent period hasn't hurt Homefront's development.

Despite the original Homefront from Kaos Studios getting a so-so Metacritic reception, Crysis developer Crytek believes their "quality attached to it" can help the sequel amaze fans.
The world they built, its setting and where they want it to go - it's "really cool," declared the studio. Hints were given of the sequel taking place in London, but "it's the team's choice."
