EDF! EDF! EDF!

There’s no release date yet. Just announced in Famitsu magazine.

I am big Earth Defense Force fan, though haven’t played World Brothers yet. Well, I am actually playing EDF 5, so, I still have these games remaining:

  • Earth Defense Force 5 (about half)
  • Earth Defense Force : Iron Rain
  • Earth Defense Force: World Brothers
  • Earth Defense Force 6

Add EDF: World Brothers 2 and that would be 5 games. Looking at positive side, I am never going to run out of EDF games.

Anyone here like EDF? And has anyone played World Brothers? How is it compared to other EDF games?

    Ah, didn’t know about that.

    Yeah, since the games are already localized, don’t know why they don’t just release them on West too. Maybe the publisher doesn’t think it’s worth it.

      I’m sure there is a small amount of extra port work that would need to be done, the big one I can think of is text box size.

      If the Switch version of those EDF games has a unique layout or size of its menus or text boxes compared to previous English localizations, then there would be some amount of new work involved in making sure all lines of text are sized appropriately, or edited if they do not fit correctly.

      Past that, it’s hard to see why they haven’t put them out, I would love to play them again!

      And to your other comment, I’m on a Kbin instance that has a funny time setting, you’re right. I wish I could just say I’m a cool dude from the future.

        Yeah, makes sense.

        I wish I could just say I’m a cool dude from the future. This was going to be my second guess, but the first one hit the mark 😀
