RELATED: Freedom Fighters Is Making A Comebackīack when development began on Freedom Fighters, it was a very different game. Alongside a provocative and patriotic setting (if a bit on the nose) that only a few games have tackled, bringing the Freedom Fighters franchise back after a long hiatus is a very good sign. Freedom Fighters made a lot of important innovations in sandbox, open world-like design back in 2003, things that were later implemented in hugely popular open world games years later. IO interactive even expressed on social media that fans have been asking for a re-release, remaster, or remake of this game for years, and for good reason. Now in its most recent re-release, Freedom Fighters has a chance to show why it was so beloved in 2003. While it was generally well received at the time, the game ended up becoming a cult classic among all the fans who originally played the game. Developed by the same team that was responsible for Hitman's rise to fame, IO Interactive also developed a third-person shooter known as Freedom Fighters.
Back before Homefront and Homefront: Revolution, there was another alternate history-themed video game that flew under the radar.
