Fight to Protect a Planet in Peril When Earth Defense Force 6 Launches on July 25 for PlayStation and PC
Highly-Anticipated Western Release for the Action Shooter Series from D3PUBLISHER Returns this Summer with Pre-orders Available Now on PlayStation
OAKLAND, CA – May 1, 2024 – D3Publisher Inc., a leading Japanese games publisher, is happy to announce that EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 6, the latest entry in the popular action-shooter series, will release for PlayStation®4, PlayStation®5, and PC via Steam on July 25, 2024, for Western audiences at a MSRP of $59.99 for the Standard Edition, and $89.99 for the Deluxe Edition. Excited fans can pre-order the game now with a 10% discount on the PlayStation Store to earn unique bonuses that will unlock when EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 6 launches. Pre-orders for Steam will be available starting in June, and players can wishlist the title now.
Pre-order rewards for North American and EU PlayStation and PC users include an exclusive set of auxiliary equipment for Wing Divers called the "Reverse Core Type-N" and three decoys based on popular Vtubers Takanashi Kiara, Gawr Gura, and IRyS. Players who purchase the title will also be eligible to receive the Hololive bonus items up to five months after launch.

In the year 2025, humanity won the war against the unknown invaders known as “Primers”, and peace returned to the planet. As a result of the conflict, 90 percent of Earth's population was destroyed and civilization was on the brink of collapse. EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 6 picks up three years after the events of EARTH DEFENSE FORCE 5, in the year 2027. The survivors continue their efforts to rebuild but threats to the world's safety remain persistent. The Primers left behind many alien colonists and the two species have become increasingly hostile toward one another. The number of invasive organisms nesting in the depths of the earth and its ruins continues to increase. The Earth Defense Force (EDF) is once again called upon to protect the planet from aggressive extraterrestrial invaders and determine the true purpose of the giant ring-shaped object that has recently appeared in the sky. Will the EDF be able to pull humanity from the edge of defeat, or will this be the species' last stand?
