EXPLORE A MUCH WILDER WEST ON PLAYSTATION 2
Wild ARMs 4 - the renowned 'cyberpunk Wild West adventure' - saddles up for an October release on PS2
505 Games invites you to don your futuristic cowboy hat and sharpen your cyber spurs for the Wild West adventure of a lifetime in Wild ARMs 4 for PlayStation 2.
Join a cast of loveable young heroes in the fourth chapter of the popular Western-themed role-playing saga that first started on the original PlayStation. Follow teenage warrior Jude Maverick and his faithful companions as they set out on a non-linear mission to save the world of Filigaia from mysterious invaders from the sky.
Wild ARMs 4 introduces a raft of new gameplay features, never before seen in previous instalments. These include a brand new strategic battle system, classic 2D 'platform game'-style challenges and the ability to slow down and speed up time to discover secret areas and solve puzzles. The action also shifts its focus away from the dusty deserts and dry gulches of previous games to a sexy, neon-lit and Cyberpunk-inspired world. The game's overhauled graphics engine brings this vibrant and exciting world to life on screen in one of the most visually arresting role-playing games available today.
Wild ARMs 4's new battle system - dubbed HEX due to its strategic hexagonal grid system - is set to thrill hardcore players while remaining accessible enough for newbies. Each section of the hexagonal grid enhances your heroes' physical or magical abilities giving you the upper hand when fighting the multitude of enemies in the game. Be careful though, as the smarter bad guys will know how to use the HEX system to their advantage too!
With its charming visuals, accessible action and exciting new gameplay features - not to mention the rich Wild ARMs heritage, which guarantees quality - Wild ARMs 4 is a role-playing experience that fans of the genre and novices alike will enjoy.
Wild ARMs 4 on PlayStation 2 launches in the UK on 6th October, from publishing label 505 Games, priced £29.99.
