In this new chapter, set in the year 2024 AD, humanity has emerged victorious in its battle against the unknown invaders.

The true identity of the long-standing enemy that has plagued Earth is finally revealed, bringing a deep sense of despair to a devastated world. But as a soldier of the Earth Defense Force, your presence will bring hope and joy to humanity. It is now up to you to confront these challenges with bravery and intelligence.
