Homefront is set in the in a near future America in 2027 when a nuclear-armed Korean People's Army invades the United States. The story is written by John Milius, who co-wrote Apocalypse Now and wrote/directed Red Dawn, which depicts a resistant movement against a Soviet-led invasion of the United States. The opening is set in Montrose, Colorado.
One of the major portions of the story arc is not only built around the development of a Korean republic over the years preceding, but the economic downfall of the United States of America, and the resulting unrest that grips the entire nation prior to an invasion by the new Korean Republic. The main cause of the economic collapse of the US being rising oil prices that pushed gas prices up to $20 a gallon, and an Asian Bird Flu epidemic which kills millions.
Homefront is speculative fiction, set in a near-future, post peak oil world that features a significantly diminished United States, and a united Korea that has built a massive alliance in East Asia. The Gate Corporation (a major private military company) also plays a minor role. The game focuses on the collapse of the United States, subsequent occupation by the Greater Korean Republic—a united Korea under the rule of North Korea—and the American Resistance that fights said occupation. The player is invited to join the American Resistance, "using guerrilla tactics, commandeering military vehicles, and utilizing advanced drone technology". The player may join the Korean Forces in multiplayer matches. The game also features vehicle-based 32 player online warfare using dedicated servers. The game shipped March 15, 2011 on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC
