EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: WORLD BROTHERS Review 

I just ordered the Asian English physical Switch edition like 5 minutes ago. Can't wait to get into this game. I love the extra characters sold as dlc.

Lol the different cultures reminds me of g gundam where mexico was basically a giant sombrero

I think it's nice to lock the difficulty. So you don't have hundreds of players that are new relying on skilled players to carry them through the whole game. For what I have tried so far solo hard is a hard but fun run but thats me. Over all I think this is a good game for new people to introduce to kids. It won't make the game too hard for them. As it helps slowly introduce a old kind of fun to a kid. Then show them a real nightmare when they jump into the other games.

The reason why EDF:WB is too easy is because it's supposed to be an EDF game for u to consume while waiting for the real deal that is EDF6

For a different perspective, and taste, but also shared taste, I offer my own. I like easy games too. I was later college age when the lego SW games came out, and still enjoy playing them here and there today. I also enjoy a solid challenge in some games ( old school shmups are my faves). It's just not a disappointment for me when a game is easier. Heck yeah, I'll play a pile of Kirby, and esp. Ra. De. !

Loving EDF WB on my Switch. It's the perfect slice of EDF action to carry around on the go. Hopefully Western releases of the EDF 3 and 4 (or was it 2 and 3?) come out soon so I can grab those as well. Also, a bit sad that 6 months ago you made this video saying that EDF 6 was 6 months away then, and I still think it's 6 months away now...

I really wanted to play this as a couch co op game on the switch, but they don't offer 2 player split screen. and the 60$ pricepoint from a game that reeks of something i'd expect to see for like 20$ i'm like no thanks... even if i sunk the 60$ on a whim to chance playing a game i think its unfair to try and inspire a friend or two to do the same .

My boys downloaded the game from PS4 store and we can’t play split screen. The 2nd player won’t more. The controller works in menu but as soon as it goes to the multiplayer split screen menu the 2nd player controller doesn’t move. Any suggestions?

I love it had characters from Iron rain, with their mechanics

Wait, so the Earth got shattered like Cadia yet the EDF still fights on and its our job to put it back together? Does this mean I could shout Imperial Guard quotes with minimal changes if I wanted to?

Since you seemingly reviewed this on PC, do you know if the PC version supports 1440p (2560x1440) resolution? I remember the previous EDF spin-off from the same studio not doing so for some bizarre reason.

Hardest and inferno up the difficulty by a lot

Subbed. Thanks for the video, your break down convinced me this be fun for my and my 7 year old to play together and that’s great

Played every EDF game since the Xbox 360 one back in 2007. So like 7 of them since then. Spent over 609 hours getting the platinum for 4.1 and 5. Got the Wing Diver up to 50,000 plus health. Always play co op and my niece has been loving this one. Inferno does app up the difficulty quite a bit. I've died quite a lot. Plus in June the extra hard dlc levels will be coming out and those are tough. The Onichanbara characters and the Dance characters are pretty fun. Having spent God knows how long playing inferno on EDF 2025 I don't always want to play a hard as nails game. This is just the kind of game I want before another main game.

Great review mate. Game looks fun af, but will probably wait for a sale

looks like a lego ver just found out today of this I know all Lego games is optimized real good which is rare they so optimized that I know even before I install it will run perfect with almost no drop in frames

The EDF series know better than almost all others how to make fun games.

With a good sale i can see this as a good buy

Is there split screen on PS4

Just looking at the game and haven't played it myself, I'd also recommend the game to people like myself who always looked at EDF from afar but couldn't play it due to a phobia of insects and arachnids. I'm someone who has had to completely stop playing Elden Ring because ants showed up in 2 of my 100 hours of the gameplay and I became horrified of finding ants in the open world. So, with a game like EDF, I can't survive 5 seconds in it. With the blocky aesthetic though I could actually look at the screen when the ants were on display during this video and their blocky appearance made them and the spiders look adorable to me instead of something like an eldritch monster my brain is trying to comprehend that haunts my nightmares for a month afterward. I still don't know if I'll pick it up, but it's nice to know that there's an option on the market for people like myself.

This and EDF 5 are both on sale for 20 bucks right now and I'm torn! I only want one and haven't played in EDF game since the xbox 360 so either of them would feel fresh. A year or two ago 5 would've been the easy choice for its challenging nature but I've been playing a lot of Muso's lately and mindlessly mowing down hoards while laughing at cheesy jokes sounds awesome too.

Nichegamer is one of the few games news websites with honesty and integrity. Respect!

I never played any of the EDF games but this one looks adorable.

I played one of the EDF games on my Vita. I liked it a lot. do you think the single player experience is worth their asking price? right now the deluxe version is $60 and the standard is oddly the same price.

offensive usually means fun

Do people still l play this? Its on a steam sale for 47% off and might get it if multiplayer isn't dead.

What was your favorite character?

Amigo Brother here I come..

does the gameplay feel more like old school edf or is it like iron rain? ps ... i hated iron rain

2:35 Good LORD they went all out didn't they? It's EVERY game so far included here isn't it?

We are the valiant infantry!!!!!

Why is the edf series so fucking expensive in my country ?!

it klinda looks really good, but the whole block theme doesnt fit at all, im not gonne get it

Purchased for ps4!!

Can’t believe there isn’t couch coop

EDF! EDF! I'm a simple person. I see EDF, i like.

Quality vid!

EDF is awesome

yeyeye ye

Honestly edf world brothers could be good on mobile due to its simplicity, it kind of reminds me of pixel gun 3d

Wanted to get this to my niece as she lives minecraft/roblox things but its way way overpriced, better wait for a sale or price cut.

Are the Russians all bears?

edf edf💯🔥👍👍👍💥🌈🌈😍🥰

Game is absolute garbage. Its poorly balanced. Like pretty much every EDF game. It looks great but honestly, we need a developer capable of creating a good musou to show yukes how to do this right. Please Koei, give us a game like this. Tired of Yukes always failing.

Omg edf and 4 are better this is just crap

Well, as a fan of the main franchise - this looks like yet another FAIL.

Never got into EDF, but this game looks like a good, casual time.
