PC EARTH DEFENSE FORCE- IRON RAIN Next Week [Oct 11, 2019, 5:54 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: IRON RAIN is coming to Windows PCs on October 15th,
offering the newest installment in this frenetic third-person shooter series
(thanks
DSOGaming). The game now has a
Steam Listing showing reasonable system requirements. Here's a description
of what to expect:
Save the world without hope.
Year 2040. An action TPS where you will become one of the EDF soldiers and fight against the invaders from outer space which ruined the world. In the world settings which differs from the original "EARTH DEFENSE FORCE" series, more than 50 missions in five difficulties await for your challenge.
- 50+ Missions in Five Difficulties
The furious battle against the invader Aggressors is full of chaos. Includes 50+ severe missions, where you must fight against gigantic enemy creatures and huge invader weapons in 5 different difficulties.- 4 Mobile Soldiers and Weapons
You will become the legendary mobile soldier which controls 4 different PA Gears, several hundreds weapons, arms and items. Regain hope to human beings.- Bring Personality to the Battlefield
Includes character creation mode. You can select your favorite gender, face, hair style, weight, voice and outfit. You can also change the personality of yourself.- Enriched Off-Line and On-Line Mode

This is not EDF imo... no more Sandlot and D3 Publishing apparently canned Sandlot forcing them to produce DLC for EDF5 while at the same time preventing them from making any updates.
EDF5 isn't even listed on the Sandlot homepage anymore, there must be a reason for that.... and the cause for it is likely the Publisher. So skip.
sandlot.jp
Isn't it right there, the second game?
I haven't heard of Sandlot being let go, and the DLC for EDF 5 is basically the same as that for EDF 4.1 -- nothing in the mission packs or DLC weapons could have taken much time to put together. Do you have a link to news of them being canned?
Unless my Japanese is bad (And it is, but not THAT bad) it says "past projects" With payment and dev cycle starting 2017 and ending 2019. In my interpretation I read it as "dev got canned by the Publisher"
How else you explain
other team with 1 game developed on steam (This one)
UE4 engine
ZERO marketing
Maybe D3 Publishing doesn't have the monies anymore.
Remember, D3 is owned by Bandai Namco
Where are you seeing the past projects, and the mentions of 2017 and 2019? If it's for EDF 5 specifically, I think it would mean that 2017 was the PS4 release and 2019 was the Steam release, and now that game's done.

UE4 and low marketing seem par for the course. I actually saw more marketing for EDF 5 (like, three trailers) than the past games, and I don't think anyone was expecting a more modern engine. A different team releasing an EDF game on Steam isn't unprecedented, either (Insect Armageddon).
