If they make another Wild Arms game, I hope they'll ditch the Strategy-RPG gameplay with the Hexgon movement, and go back to more traditional turn-based combat from the earlier games (the first 3). Wild Arms 4 completely bored me, and I skipped out on 5 because they doubled down on the Hexagon stuff.

Good writing this time please, and more anime cutscenes (or CGI if they decide to go that route).

While I'd argue WA4 characters aren't the best, people don't give it much credit.
Kid shit aside, it's arguably one of the darker stories in the series and the plot of the characters involve too much suffering, holy shit. I'd argue the weakest of the gang is Arnaud, but even then Racquel pulls him through with their development.
I mean holy crap, when
you could definitely feel the emotional pain it gave the guy.
I'd take WA4 characters over WA5 characters at any given day.

How was I not on the first page of this..
Needless to say, I'm fully erect at this possibility.
I've been jonesing for more Wild ARMs since forever and I firmly believe this is the Generation of dreams for real.

Are those new art? Is the artist someone who work on previous Wild Arms? It'd be really cool to have new game
Wild ARMS was such a weird thing for me as a kid. I was like 8/9 years old and had no experience or interest in RPGs and knew very little about them.
I remember seeing Wild ARMS reviewed a 9/10 in the Official UK PlayStation Magazine and when they did a special offer of a free game for new subscribers, Wild ARMS was the one I chose for reasons I still don't even know. Something about it I was drawn to. Maybe it was the cartoony art style and the adorable chibi 3D battle models. I don't really kknow.
So I ended up getting it and being introduced to turn based combat, random encounters, dungeons, summons - all of the main JRPG elements - all for the first time. Throw Inn a fascinating story, deep lore and interesting characters and I was hooked.
I never played another game in the series but I'd love to go back and play that first gem of a game all over again. Especially if they did some kind of remaster for the anniversary that was different to Alter Code F, which I've got no interest in playing.

Is it the same artist?
Peaked @ 1 really
Whats the matter with Alter Code F? Also you should at least give 3 a shot.

They can start by putting Wild ARMS XF back up on the store

They even recognize XF heroine Clarissa!
Though for WA3 is Virginia really the "main" character? Because unlike in the other WAs the protagonist importance was shared equally to everyone. I think the only one who didn't have much role was Clive.
Yeah it's whole bittersweet, especially with
Raquel dying
She's the mascot of that game, more or less.
Late but, that's Thousand Arms by Atlus, the dating RPG game that Ayumi Hamasaki sang "depend on you" lol
On topix i really hope for a new wild arms, i played all of em n loves most of em...4 was meh

Series has been inactive for 10 of those 20 years.
But damn if I don't get nostalgic looking at this. Been thinking of doing a replay of the series (despite my backlog) and this isn't helping!

Hope for new game! Maybe big PS4 J-RPG Wild Arms?

Love that art, it was awesome over the past 2 years getting to play through the whole series, much of it for the first time... 4 is my personal fave even if the main story and the "adults r evil!*!@#*#@*" story is kinda silly. The SRPG was an incredible challenge that was so satisfying when I finally managed to beat it. But I love most of the games, it's a pretty consistent series as far as quality goes.
Complicated puzzle-based dungeons with great level design, turn-based combat, awesome music, tons of side content... pushes all the right buttons for me. A WA6 on PS4 would be positively awesome, ideally with cel-shaded graphics on the level of the concept art/animated intros.

I would love this and hell just add WA1/2 as well with trophies. I would love another game though although as a traditional battle system like 1-3 and not the hexagon system.

I'm game.
WA3 should be coming eventually, it got rated by one of the rating boards a while back. Though we haven't gotten a PS2 on PS4 game for a month or so now, so it could be a while.
No telling on the others. Agetec released Alter Code, and Xseed handled 4&5, so those will be a little tougher to release (though I doubt any of it is insurmountable).

That banner. Rudy the mf'ing king.
Looking at all the MCs of Wild Arms drawn by the WA5 guy makes me hope they stay on if a sequel is announced. The art is great.

Is Agetec still around?
Also that explains with the shitty publication of ACF. Holy shit what's up with the dialog lines going past the text box lol

You're missing out, Wild Arms 5 is the bees knees
The hex combat is alittle more simplified if I'm not mistaken
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
it's not even SRPG, it's turn based but with placement in mind
with that said... I feel 5 is a step down from 4
4 is faster paced, none of the "hex turning weird" shit too

Please let this be a new game.
The first Wild ARMs into still gives me chills when I hear/watch it.

Woah, awesome, finally seeing this.
This. I need a new Wild Arms game.
Couldn't have said it better, we're on our way, now we need Wild Arms to join in. As said above, I really hope this is happening, there have been rumblings for a while now.
Hnnng. That post.
Oh please please please.
Of course, I'm thinking... Even if it's NOT Wild Arms, it sounds like someone's making a game I'm going to want to play!
