One of the first things to strike gamers returning to E.D.N. III will be the fact that the planet has undergone a revamp. With the snow of the first game melting away, this time you’ll be fighting in warmer surroundings. There have been changes to the gameplay, too, with a larger focus on online play, and although the game can be tackled alone, there is a benefit to be had from being joined by three humans rather than AI accomplices. Some of the battles are immense, and in general LP2 is an improvement – just make sure you head online to experience it at its best.
