EDF! EDF! EDF!
Earth Defense Force 5 is now available to download from the PlayStation Store for the PS4, and D3 Publisher has unleashed a nasty new Launch Trailer starring the franchise’s signature creepy-crawlies. In addition to the game’s four character classes, prospective players will get a good look at the game’s collapsing skyscrapers, gigantic frog-bats, rampaging kaiju, and a lot of bugs… just so many bugs:
Packed with tons of content and high replay value, Earth Defense Force 5 delivers over 100 missions with more than 1,000 weapons and armaments to unlock and master.
It also offers players four unique classes to master, allowing players to approach mission goals and objectives in a variety of ways. Classes include the Ranger, a well-rounded infantry soldier, the Wing Diver, a highly mobile air unit, the Fencer, a heavy weapons unit with thick armor, and the Air Raider, a support focused class with the ability to drive vehicles.
With multiple options for multiplayer, Earth Defense Force 5 also offers up to four-player online co-op as well as offline couch co-op, supporting up to two players via split-screen.
According to D3 Publisher, Earth Defense Force 5 will also be available to purchase in a Deluxe Edition, which includes additional weaponry and two post-launch Mission Packs.
