Today’s issue of Weekly Famitsu included an article on D3 Publisher’s Earth Defense Force 6, and it finally confirmed its platforms.
The game will be released for both PS5 and PS4, confirming the speculation due to the fact that it has always been showcased with a PlayStation controller. We also learn that it’ll release in 2022.
Incidentally, considering the controller used, it’s likely that the footage we’ve seen so far was from the PS4 version.
We’ll likely see more of the game at Tokyo Game Show. D3 Publisher’s livestream is scheduled for tomorrow (September 30) at 9.00 pm Japan Time. It could be the perfect chance to debut a look at the PS5 version, but for now, we’ll have to wait and see.
Of course, you can expect full coverage here on Twinfinite as soon as the livestream airs.
At the moment, no western release has been announced for the game, but D3 Publisher has been doing a good job at localizing its games, so there is certainly hope.
