DLC "Additional Mission Pack 2 Super Challenge" for "Earth Defense Forces 5" for PS4, now available from D3 Publisher, is now available.

Earth Defense Forces 5" is a mission-completion 3D action shooter set on the Earth in the year 2022, depicting the battle between humanity and an unknown alien life form called Primer. The player becomes a soldier of the "EDF" (Earth Defense Force) and defeats the "Primers" that keep attacking one after another.

The second additional mission, "Additional Mission Pack 2 Super Challenge," which contains more than 10 types of ultra-high difficulty missions, is now available!　In the carefully selected super-difficult missions, even subspecies that were encountered only in the high-difficulty missions of the main game will come out in droves, as well as aliens with new equipment and enemy weapons that are only available in this additional mission. Now, from here on out, it's hell's second street. How will EDF face the bottomless despair? If you are a veteran EDF member who has played through the missions in "Chikyu Boeigun 5," why not give it a try?

In this article, we will introduce new enemies and new weapons that appear in this additional mission.

■Evolution of unidentified flying objects.

Bombships.
Large autonomous attack ships. It is believed to be a machine to clean up the remaining human population. Several times the size of a drone, they have high firepower, specializing in ground-to-ground combat. It floats in the sky above and searches for humans. When it finds a human, it drops an energy projectile from directly above and bombs the area around the human. It is a formidable weapon, but it seems to be a device designed to mop up non-combatants, and its attacks are limited to the area directly below it. Therefore, it is not considered a threat as long as it does not enter the area directly under it.

Red-clad devil attacks in droves.

Invasive Alien Species Alpha Red Clothing Mutant.
A mutant of the invasive alien species alpha red. Originally, the alpha red clade did not have the ability to spit acid, but instead had an extremely hard shell. The red-armored mutant is encased in an even more armor-like shell that cannot be easily killed, even with guns or cannons. The thick shell, however, is heavy and seems to slow down the movement of the red-armored mutant.

A new heavily armed knight, now on the scene.

The "Cosmonauts: Heavy Armed Precision Snipers."
Heavily armed cosmonoats with a new type of armament. The weapon they carry is a high-powered laser cannon, an improved version of the Luster Cannon, which EDF calls the Luster Close Cannon. It is more accurate than the normal Luster Cannon and more accurately captures humans, who are smaller to them. To be targeted by this weapon means death. For ground troops, they are the most fearsome aliens.

■Storm 1, use the new weapon.

In response to the second emergency, the EDF has once again decided to deploy to each infantry unit an arsenal of the most powerful weapons/weapons that the EDF has at its disposal. These new weapons will greatly improve the capabilities of the infantry units in the toughest battlefields, and will be coveted by the elite troops who aim to conquer the toughest challenges. The "Sergeant," who has become a popular character in the game, is the only one equipped with this weapon. Now is the time to defy fate. The EDF is prepared. Here are just a few examples.
