The EDF series takes a bold step beyond its familiar roots and ventures into uncharted ground with this groundbreaking new project. Crafted by YUKE'S, featuring a theme song by Takashi Niigaki and creature designs by Ryu Oyama, it introduces an EDF experience like no other. Welcome to EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: IRON RAIN. Taking place on a war-torn Earth, this new chapter follows the EDF as they persist in their fight to protect the planet.
In the year 2028, Earth was struck by an extraterrestrial force known as the "Aggressor." A massive floating structure, the "Hivecraft," measuring a full kilometer in length, suddenly emerged from space and began unleashing a relentless assault on the planet. It deployed countless insect-like creatures and deadly weapons across the globe, sweeping from the United States through Russia, Asia, the Middle East, and Europe in just three days. In response, humanity formed a ground defense force known as the EDF, positioning it along national borders to resist the invasion. But the tide of war turned grim, and once-beautiful cities crumbled into piles of rubble. Eventually, all the key military bases capable of opposing the invaders were obliterated. With no options left, humanity could only stand by and await the end of the world...
