Earth Defense Force 6 is out now, but only in Japan

Back in May, D3 Publisher announced an August Japanese release for Earth Defense Force 6. Time flies, as do hornets, drone ships, dragons, and other deadly things.

D3 Publisher recently announced a Japanese release date for EDF 6, however, so it's time to start preparing. Earth Defense Force 6 will arrive on PlayStation 4 a...

Steam Version of 'Earth Defense Force: World Brothers' Ditches Region-Locking

When we reviewed Earth Defense Force: World Brothers, the recent EDF spin-off from Yuke's and D3 Publisher, we mostly had a great online co-op experience. The Steam version of the game, however, inexplicably suffered from region-locked lobbies. (The PlayStation and Switch versions weren't affected.) Workarounds will no longer be necessary when playing with folks from other places, thankfully, because the region locking has now been fixed!

Looks can be deceiving

Earth Defense Force: World Brothers Eyes on Preview

There's been almost 10 Earth Defense Force games released since Earth Defense Force 2017 came out on the Xbox 360, but one thing has remained constant in the series - the sense of scale. That was the answer given by series creator and producer on Earth Defense Force: World Brothers, Nobuyuki Okajima. With the new game in the series departing from the more realistic look we saw in Earth Defense Force 5 it's good to know the soul is still in tact.
