EDF6 removes Steam-Epic Games account linking requirement after backlash. Controversial account requirement resulted in the game getting review bombed. Fans express relief over removal of requirement.

Watch extended gameplay footage from Earth Defense Force 4.1: The Shadow of New Despair featuring the Giant Bomb crew.

prepare yourself for a whole new fight in EARTH DEFENSE FORCES 5, an all-new tale of invasion by unknown alien forces and humanity's confrontation against them.

I have mixed feelings about this game. An enjoyable arcade style shooter. Online play alone could add a lot of value. They used to have American sales...Seems they backtracked. EDF sold better in JP ...
