Earth Defense Force 4.1: The Shadow of New Despair (PS4): COMPLETED!

Certainly, for the most part, little has changed from previous EDF games. A few new enemy types, slightly different level layouts, and probably some new weapons. Oh, and some new – but currently unused – character classes. That doesn’t matter.
