from the upcoming shooter sequel. The accompanying announcement has details on a
"Revolutionary Spirit" pack that's a bonus for preordering the game along with
details on cooperative gameplay. Here's word:
Resistance Mode is a brand
new four-player co-operative online experience. Form a Resistance Cell with your
friends online and wage guerrilla warfare against the KPA military in thrilling
narrative-driven missions across occupied Philadelphia. Customize your personal
roster of Freedom Fighters as you and your teammates go from rookie civilians to
battle hardened soldiers. Unlock new skills, earn weapon blueprints, rare
equipment and combat gear to upgrade.
Xbox One owners can be the first to try it out when the Closed Beta runs

system from Microsoft. In addition, registered members of the Homefront
community may also be invited to participate in a sneak preview of Resistance
Mode via one of the upcoming Closed Beta Stress Tests which will take place on
Friday, January 29th and Friday, February 5th on Xbox One.
"Homefront: The Revolution is this team's most ambitious project yet," said
Hasit Zala, game director at Dambuster Studios. "In addition to our epic 30-plus
hour single-player campaign, we expect to launch Resistance Mode with 12
Missions, packed with re-playability, and hope to release another 20 Missions
within the first year. To ensure our community can always play together, all
Resistance Mode Missions will be free to download."
