Earth Defense Force Portable V2 is an upgraded version of the PS2 game for Vita
Handsome bugs
D3 Publisher has announced that the 2005 giant bug shooting game Earth Defense Force 2 for PS2 will be coming to Vita in Japan this November.
Famitsu reports that this upcoming Vita port will be called Earth Defense Force Portable V2. It will have upgraded graphics and support online multiplayer for up to four players.
The Air Raid unit that lets you summon tanks and air strikes, introduced in Earth Defense Force 2025, has also been added to the game.
These are all improvements that the PSP port of the PS2 game that released back in 2011 couldn't have had.
At the current moment in time, we don't know if Earth Defense Force Portable V2 will be released outside of Japan. We'll let you know if and when we do know.
