Changes: Wild Arms: Million Memories

Revision as of 18:23, 5 September 2018

Wild Arms: Million Memories is an upcoming Wild Arms game to be released in Japan in 2018 for smartphones^[1]. The game was hinted at during its production stage back in 2016 in celebration of Wild Arms' 20th anniversary by series creator Akifumo Kaneko.^[2] It features a brand new story in the series, supervised by Kaneko,^[3] with music composed by series veteran Michiko Naruke^[4]. Million Memories has the distinction of being the only Wild Arms game of the series to have not been developed by Media.Vision, instead being developed by ForwardWorks. It will be the first game to be released in the series since Wild Arms XF in 2007, effectively reviving the series after 11 years. It is currently unknown whether the game will be released to Western audiences or be ported to other consoles.

The game's main theme is "Million Memories", composed by Michiko Naruke with lyrics sung by vocalist Rin Akatsuki.

Story

"The ruined planet, Filgaia.

Ashley, Virginia, Jude, Dean, and Clarissa—adventurers known as “Migrant Birds”—were in trouble due to Mother, the leader of the Metal Demons.

Are they not able to stop mother’s plan? Will they have to accept their fate of despair?

Mother’s crazy laughter echoes.

Countermeasures against the worst possible situation should have been devised, and yet such a situation is occurring...

"Why did you betray everyone? Rudy..."

Fates will cross, and feelings will connect—-."

—Synopsis^[5]

Gameplay

A trailer released for the game showcased a battle system employing real-time combat typically seen in Action RPGs, as opposed to the turn-based style of battle traditionally used throughout the Wild arms series. This would make Million Memories the first game in the franchise to make such a deviation.^[6]

Development

Not a lot of information is known at this moment, however the official site states that it will be a brand new entry in the series, build on the memories of the previous installments, which the game's title seems to be a reference to.^[7] Promotional and concept art for the game features each of the six central protagonists of their respective installments in the series.
