Earth Defense Force 2017 Portable Launches Like A Rocket
The Vita version of the campy alien slaying game has arrived. Investigate the trailer.
Earth Defense Force may not have the biggest fan following, but its defenders are fervent in their enthusiasm for the crazy alien invasion B-movie vibe. The new portable Vita version is now available for download on PlayStation Network, and we’ve got a new trailer to help show off what you can look forward to.
The remastered Vita version is more than a straight port of the Xbox 360 release. Instead, returning players can expect to find seven new levels and the added ability to play the Pale Wing class, which lets you fly through stages as you blast the bad guys. In addition, EDF 2017 Portable now allows for cooperative or competitive four-player online play.
Watch the trailer below.
