Earth Defense Force 5

Earth Defense Force 5 provides decent multiplayer fun over several missions where you fight against alien invaders. Different classes provide variety to engage enemies as you wish. Gameplay can be repetitive at times with a slow grind for better equipment. It can be great fun with friends or played in short bursts.

5 can feel like a trade off between scale and polish at first, and although this throwback third-person shooter has some incredibly frustrating quirks, it’s still proof positive that a solid concept doesn’t need much polish to shine. Like a magnifying glass pointed at a hill full of giant bastard ants.

Earth Defense Force 5 is yet another iteration of a series that embraces the repetitiveness of the action to make it its own main strength, thanks to an enviable amount of unlockable content and an immediate gameplay formula capable of entertaining for tens, if not hundreds of hours.

At last the Earth Defense Force series gets a sequel worthy of its early promise, even if there are still a few unwanted bugs left.

A fun game despite it looks like a past gen videogame and doesn't has anything really new.
