Today D3 Publisher has just released the third trailer for the sixth main instalment in the Earth Defense Force series, showcasing plenty of gameplay in action during Tokyo Game Show.

This month, unleash brutal finishers in the reimagined Mortal Kombat 1, swing through Marvel’s New York skyline as the iconic web-slinger in Marvel’s Spider-Man, or gear up to repel swarming alien forces in Earth Defense Force 6. All these titles and more are available in August’s PlayStation Plus Game Catalog lineup. That includes Sword of the Sea, which releases day one into Game Catalog. Meanwhile, Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3: Nemesis bring retro survival horror to PlayStation Plus Premium. All titles will be available to play on August 19*.

"As loyal readers know, Earth Defense Force 6 is one of my very favorite games. My wife and I have collectively put hundreds of ours into it, mostly on the Steam Deck, Valve's portable gaming device. Many of those hours were spent in online co-op, a key selling point of the EDF series. Sadly, however, we can no longer play together from our Decks because the Epic Online Services functionality, used for the game's online mode, no longer works on some Steam Decks," says Co-Optimus
The online connectivity problem seems to have disrupted the experience for a portion of players, including your co-op sessions. While it’s encouraging that the issue https://www-tollroads.com is being discussed in forums, the lack of communication from the developers is disappointing.

Total sales for Earth Defense Force 6 have surpassed 600,000 units worldwide, D3 Publisher and developer Sandlot announced.
