Homefront the Revolution: Beyond the Walls DLC (Xbox One)

The third and final add-on for Homefront. Once again the trend of the DLC being good carries on. Seriously, why wasn't the game on the same levels?

When Beyond the Walls was announced, I read that it was meant to be much larger than the previous two. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case, it seemed only slightly longer and they raised the price, so it felt like it was worth buying the season pass.

The final piece to Brady's story has him leaving Philadelphia to link up with a Nato agent, who claims to have a plan to end the KPA's occupation of Philly. We meet a new char called Lisa, she sticks around for a while and actually accompanies you, after being solo for the majority of the original game. I liked Lisa more than most of the original cast and I'm glad she stuck around, as it made for some good exposition between the two.

I liked practically all the missions and liked the combination of stealth and assault. It's a shame they overpriced it and made it sound like it was gonna be a lot larger. It's probably my favourite of the three DLC's, but the pricing hurt it. They should've added more for the price they charged.

I enjoyed all the DLC's, but seeing as this is the final one, I sincerely hope that it's the last we'll see of Homefront. They've had their chance in a failed sequel, they improved with the DLC, but they don't deserve a third game, and Dambuster don't deserve a second chance. Adios Homefront.

3.2/5
