Report: Crytek UK stages a real-life revolution, ceasing Homefront development over unpaid wages

Kotaku reports that staff at Crytek UK have ceased development on Homefront: The Revolution in protest of unpaid wages.

Insiders allege that about 100 staff have stopped going into work.

These new allegations follow others that suggest Crytek is on the verge of bankruptcy.

Rumours are currently swirling that Deep Silver might try to buy Crytek UK outright to continue production of Homefront: The Revolution.

We’ll keep you up-to-date as we learn more.

Stevivor recently spent hands-off time with The Revolution at E3.

Steve is the founder of Stevivor, which itself is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’ -- that made more sense back in 2001 when Steve first arrived in the country and Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
