Earth Defense Force 5 Is Coming To PC Via Steam This Week

Ethan

Sandlot and D3 will make Earth Defense Force 5 a multiplatform game, which means it will no longer be a PS4 exclusive. The third-person shooter will indeed hit Gaben’s storefront next week according to a new tweet and Steam listing.

The two-year-old game that is all about fending off an all-out attack by unknown life forms is coming to the platform best known as PC, which means you can experience the once PS4 exclusive title this week.

Even though it took a year for the title to travel to different regions — having originally launched on PS4 in Japan in 2017 — gamers outside of Japan did manage to get their hands on the third-person shooter when it had a worldwide release on PS4 in 2018. And now, the game will make its way to PC gamers in 2019, as revealed in the tweet by the official EDF Twitter account:

As for plot and what you will be doing in this game, assuming you don’t already know, you assume the role of an EDF soldier standing and fighting for humanity (in an arcade shooter setup), which takes place in the year 2022.

As the game’s name implies, the Earth Defense Force must drive out all unknown life forms even if it means besting intelligent extraterrestrial civilization.

If all of that sounds like fun, you can look over the official PC requirements right here:
