The Earth Defense Force series has consistently managed to attract audiences in solid numbers despite its decidedly low budget and rough-around-the-edges nature, and that continues to be the case. Earth Defense Force 6 finally launched in the West last July, a couple years on from its initial Japanese release, and it has continued to sell at a decent pace since then.

Taking to Twitter, Sandlot and D3 Publisher have announced that Earth Defense Force 6 has sold over 600,000 units worldwide across all platforms. That’s up from 550,000 units in September, which means the bombastic alien-slaughtering shooter has sold an additional 50,000 units since then.

In our review of Earth Defense Force 6, we awarded it a score of 7/10, praising it for its combat, environmental destruction, and campy tone while reserving criticism for its lack of polish and repetitive missions. Read the full review through here.

Earth Defense Force 6 is available on PS5, PS4, and PC.
