In the original Earth Defense Force: World Brothers, players explore a parallel world made of digital blocks. The world is in pieces and its up to players to fight enemies and save Earth. If they don’t, the game’s antagonist, The Dark Tyrant, will destroy the pieces. Players defeated The Dark Tyrant in Earth Defense Force: World Brothers. Gaiarch will emerge as a new threat in the upcoming sequel.
Lastly, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 will be available on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and PC on September 26. Here’s an overview of the game’s story, via its storefront pages:
After Dark Tyrant was defeated, peace was restored on the square Earth—but now, it has been broken into pieces once again. We watched the skies, assuming any new enemies would come from above—which is why we were surprised when the supermassive “Gaiarch” emerged from below ground, shattering the Earth into pieces.
YOU are the legendary Commander that once saved our planet. Now, we need you to lead another team to save our Earth again. The EDF never back away from defending the Earth, be it round or square—so let’s go to the rescue!
