E.X. Troopers Exists Because Capcom Wanted A Lost Planet “Party Shooter”
"Lost Planet is going in two very different directions with family man Jim foraging thermal energy on a frozen planet in one game and shonen archetype Bren who dreams of becoming the best Vital Suit pilot in E.X. Troopers. While both titles are in the same universe, the games clash aesthetically with bright and fun anime art for E.X. Troopers compared to Lost Planet 3′s serious looking 3D models. If you take out the ice planet setting, E.X. Troopers is the antithesis of Lost Planet 3. And that’s exactly what Capcom wants.", writes Siliconera
