About the game


They took your freedom. It's time to take it back!

Freedom Fighters is an intense third-person action game set in an alternate history New York during the invasion of a foreign superpower. Take on the role of Chris Stone, a hard-working plumber, and rise through the ranks of the resistance to prove yourself as a charismatic leader.

Liberate supplies, scavenge weapons and use the 'recruit and command' system to grow the resistance and lead up to 12 freedom fighters into strategic conflicts throughout the campaign. Travel across the city and complete interconnected missions where your actions in one level affect the battles in another.

Originally released in 2003, IO Interactive's cult classic is now available digitally in its original form for the first time.

About the soundtrack


The Freedom Fighters Soundtrack features 18 tracks that are produced by acclaimed music composer Jesper Kyd. Combining live choir performances by the Hungarian Radio Choir with techno beats and other electronic instruments, Kyd effortlessly captures the vibe of the game and the epic quest to liberate New York from a foreign superpower.

Originally released in 2003. Music composed and produced by Jesper Kyd. Performed by Jesper Kyd and the Hungarian Radio Choir.

One of my all time favorites!!

This game still plays amazing, and I wish we could get a remaster. This game deserves more time in the sun.

One of my favorite games of all time!

I played this through several times on the OG Xbox and EA really missed a huge opportunity to keep evolving this franchise.

Blast from the past

I heard a lot about this game but never got the chance to play it originally. IOI basically nailed it - brought it back and allowed the resolution to be upscaled. The squad AI is surprisingly pretty good and the simplified squad controls can actually help set up your tactics properly. Plus where else are you able to command up to 12 other people? This is worthy of a next-gen remake and I hope IOI are taking note of the positive reception to this re-release.

Runs on Win 7 Pro 64 bit

Just wanted to confirm it runs without problems on Win 7. Did just complete the first mission, easy mode is easy enough, controls are simple, atmosphere is great, soundtrack as well. The graphics is of course outdated but doesn't look terrible. Price is steep, though. Giving it a 3 stars for now, probably will give more once I've played longer.

Freedom Fighters Review

Freedom Fighters is a third person shooter developed by IO Interactive and published by Electronic Arts in 2003, the GOG version being a 2020 re-release. In a historical timeline where the Soviet Union won World War II by dropping the A-bomb on Berlin in 1945 and gaining influence in Europe and abroad, you play the role of plumber Christopher Stone as he witnesses the Soviet invasion of New York in 2003. From the chaos that envelops him he will rise as the Freedom Phantom to become leader of the Resistance in New York. During the game the player must accomplish certain objectives to progress the story. These range from blowing up helipads and bridges to capturing Soviet strongholds. Completing some objectives first influences the difficulty of others. By gaining Charisma Chris can recruit other freedom fighters and command them using a simple, yet efficient, system. The shooting mechanics are fluid and each weapon feels different. If the player is patient and attentive he will encounter no problems in finishing the game, even on the highest difficulty levels. The soundtrack is a superb mix of sinth and orchestral music, composed by Jesper Kyd in colaboration with the Hungarian Radio Choir. The sound design is good and contributes to the overall atmosphere of a besieged New York. Professional voice acting adds realism to a well written script despite the "What if" tone the game is aiming for. The story is delivered through dialogue and through some very well designed in-game news coverages. Unfortunately the game eludes a perfect score due to lag in certain spots despite being played on a device that meets the recommended system requirements, several glitches and texture problems. Despite all these technical problems, Freedom Fighters deserves your attention due to a unique story and setting, satisfying gameplay and overall beautiful presentation. It has a lot of charm and you can see the passion of the developers behind it. "Where is your girlfriend, citizen?"
