Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain

The EDF series heads into new territory with this project. Developed by YUKE'S, featuring a theme song by Takashi Niigaki and creatures designed by Ryu Oyama, it delivers an EDF experience unlike any before. Welcome to EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: IRON RAIN. Set on a war-devastated Earth, this new action adventure joins the EDF as they continue fighting to save the world.

In 2028, Earth is invaded by an extraterrestrial force known as the “Aggressor.” A massive levitating craft called the “Hivecraft,” measuring 1 km in total length, suddenly arrives from space and launches a global assault. It attacks regions around the world by dropping countless giant, insect-like creatures and lethal weapons, crossing from the United States to Russia, Asia, the Middle East, and Europe in just three days. Humanity forms a ground defense force called the EDF and fights back at the front lines. But the war quickly turns grim as once-beautiful cities are reduced to mountains of rubble. One by one, the world’s key military bases—those capable of resisting the invaders—are destroyed. With nothing left to stop the Aggressor and the Hivecraft’s onslaught, humanity can only wait for the end.
