You'll face swarms of enemies that include giant ants, spiders, and robots- at over 20 stories tall, these creatures will overwhelm your screen.

You'll get help from your AI EDF team on 50 missions that take you through cities, to the shore, and underground. Team with a friend in co-op play when the battling gets too intense and help each other fight off the madness and save the world!
