Stop talking. Just shut up. Give your vocal chords a rest. They'll need it, as come February 18 they'll be screeching "EDF! EDF!" when Earth Defense Force 2025 launches on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Creator Sandlot is back at the helm for this one, and we were pretty pleased with what we played of it, so 2025 may be a fine send-off for this console generation's swarming giant insects.

D3 Publisher has announced a pre-order pack for Earth Defense Force 2025, and other DLC packs that may come to various retailers.

Oversized monsters are ready to once again destroy our feeble human cities. Earth Defense Force 2025 takes the best qualities of its predecessors, shines them up, and expands with new weapons, characters, and multiplayer dynamics--all whilst keeping its B-movie charm.

Bad news, troops. Earth Defense Force 2025 has been delayed from its planned 2013 launch to February 2014.

With EDF creator Sandlot back at the helm, it's again looking the right sort of janky. Maybe.

The behemoth bug-smashing Earth Defense Force didn't fare so well under another developer in EDF Insect Armageddon, but the series is back with creator Sandlot for Earth Defense Force 2025.

D3's giant insect franchise is coming back next year.
