A few months ago it was revealed that D3 Publisher would be bringing the cult-classic Earth Defense Force 2017 to the PlayStation Vita in Japan. Originally released on the Xbox 360, this port now has a solid release date of September 27th. Siliconera reports that the game is being titled Earth Defense Force 3 Portable and will also feature four player online multiplayer as well as ad-hoc gameplay.
Unfortunately at this time D3 has not made any announcements regarding a North American release of this game, though considering the fact that the PlayStation Vita’s physical releases are region-free, the title is ripe for the importing at the very least.
