Is the story is a sequel of the first homefront?

Well, while it is a reboot, it doesn't totally invalidate the first game. The real world setting of the first is replaced with more fantasy setting, and in a way, the intro felt like it "EXPLAINED" how the break down occured in the first game's opening: the back door. They do acknowledge other elements from the first game's pre-occupation history like the energy/oil crisis, middle east wars stretching our military, etc.

So I think, while it is a reboot, you may enjoy how they "retcon" some elements to make it more future tech sci-fi weaponry than the traditional arms in first game. Also, I like to think the "leader of the resistance" who you meet in the opening, is your character from the first game. Not stated. Not official, but it fits well.

basicly after the ending of the first game the NK lanched a counter attack and retook most of the US, then i think this game happens a while latter as the Nk now have even more advanced gear instead of the standard US miltry gear they had before
