Critic Reviews for Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2
Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 is super accessible and very easy to get into, but deceptively difficult to master.
As with the original, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 is a simplified and cutesy take on the whole EDF think. While it succeeds in that goal, it loses a lot of the allure as it does so.
If you’ve never played an Earth Defense Force game before, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 would be a great place to start. If you’re already a diehard EDF fan, then this is a quality entry. I just wish the series staggered its releases more.
If you can get past the childish and highly repetitive English dialogue, Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 is a great option for players looking to mindlessly blast giant insects, aliens and Kaiju to bits with their friends, either online or with a local buddy.
EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: WORLD BROTHERS 2 is a hilarious co-op action game that everyone who enjoys the genre should play whether you prefer playing with local chums or online chums-to-be. Just be sure to plug your nose with all the bug guts around. 🐜
Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 is hands down my favorite EDF title of all those that I’ve played. I have already put so many hours into this title, even setting down Earth Defense Force 6 in its favor. The pick up and play nature and the unadulterated fun just keep me coming back. The art direction and way unlocks work won’t be for everyone, but if you’re already part of the EDF cult you’d be doing a massive disservice in missing out on this title over something like visual style. For parents, this is also a potentially fantastic way to introduce a younger teen audience to the series, and certainly converted my kaiju-loving child into the next generation of the Earth Defense Force.
Earth Defense Force: World Brothers 2 takes the familiar setup of the main series and just makes it more upbeat.
