Aug 29, 2019This one would have made for an average game in 2005. Now, 15 years later, if even fails to translate that into nostalgia.

Aug 23, 2019Like its predecessor, Earth Defense Force 5 is a fine jumping-off point for newcomers to the series. The shooting remains as solid as ever, and the concept of mixing in loot drops with blasting large enemy hordes remains enjoyable, even if the whole package isn't as polished as expected from something with a cult following. However, EDF5 doesn't surpass the heights of EDF4.1 due to its flaws detracting from the progress of its improvements. The deeper combat thanks to some new enemy types only comes after spending the first two levels doing nothing, and the game is now more stable, but PC fans who've waited this long still have to buy the extra missions via DLC. Nevertheless, this is a treat of a game that actions fans will love.

Aug 9, 2019Quirky and deliberately cheesy, Earth Defense Force 5 boasts hours of enjoyable if straightforward content.

Jul 23, 2019Earth Defence Force 5 is yet the best game in the series. It offers just more of everything in comparison with its predecessors.
