EDF 6 and EDF World Brothers
- Thread starter wwm0nkey
- Start date
I haven't really played an EDF game since 2017, but I'm at least excited to see the blocky World Brothers game.
I'm hoping the enemies explode like old school space invaders or something when they die.
Honestly, I really like that artstyle for EDF. The realistic graphics for the last 3 or 4 mainline EDF games has gotten a bit stale for me.
I've had EDF 5 on my Steam wishlist for ages, but it never seems to get sales, at least sales big enough for me to pull the trigger on it.

Don't think so, guessing PS4 with Steam 6 months latter like always
World Brothers looks... unfortunate
Should have just ported one of the last-gen numbered entries imo

To save our mother Earth from any alien attack
From vicious giant insects who have once again come back
We'll unleash all our forces, we won't cut them any slack
The EDF deploys!

TBH, I don't think there's much of a canon, or continuous timeline between the games. EDF 6's story may just be its own thing. Still, if you come into EDF expecting story and graphics, then you're doing it wrong :p
While it's not exactly a thing at the forefront for this series, it's always such that there are two EDF main games that start and then wrap up their own storylines.
EDF1 -> EDF2
EDF3 (2017) -> EDF4 (2025/4.1)
And now,
EDF5 -> EDF6
There's always small lore tidbits that connect each duo of games (ex. like how Storm-1 was your PC from EDF3, who gets referenced as a legend in EDF4), and this one even continues on from the last game left off with a faction of the Invading forces left behind after their main battalion retreated.
And if this game, being a continuation, is anything like its previous counterparts, things are only going to get worse for humanity by the time the Aliens come back and fuck up everybody's for round 2.
It might have some tricks up it's sleeve like 4 player split screen or destruction physics or something like that.
If World Brothers can keep the gameplay the same and the enemy count high I think I'm really going to like it.
It's on the Gematsu page that this is a direct continuation.
It's true though, shouldn't expect much coherence from the story lol.
Oh cool! In World Brothers you go into missions with a squad of 4 people you can swap between.For actual info on each game:

I rarely ever play EDF games with more than one class, so this will be a great way of trying them out without having to start new games.
Switch could play the ps360 games no sweat. But I'll take the funky spinoff. As long as the gameplay is solid should be fun
That frog that is actually a human being because it has 2 eyes just like us is so brown when they were green before is odd, feels like it's straight from PS3 UE3 era with the one tone color problem back then.
I hope it's not so brown through and through.
