For those unfamiliar, Earthfall is a team-based shooter where players fight off an alien invasion in the Pacific Northwest. With ten missions across two campaigns, players will fend off increasingly more difficult waves of enemies, while also slowly unraveling the story behind the alien invasion. The game is very much a horde mode style shooter, where squad based tactics and defense building is key to survival. The game has been available in Steam Early Access, where it’s had mostly positive reviews and has been appropriately compared to Left 4 Dead.
