Gameplay






= Combat system

=
During combat, the field is split into seven hexagonal sections, some of which may have special properties. The player and enemies can move to different hexagons during their turn. This time around, the party count is three instead of four. Dean's party members and enemies can act instantly when they move onto the next hexagonal platform.
The Force meter returns from 5.180.24.3/info/wild" target="_blank">Wild 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">Arms 4. This meter increases as Dean's party members make physical attacks or are attacked. This can be used for Original attacks, Team Combos or summoning Guardian beasts to attack enemies. The more powerful the attack is, the more the Force meter will be drained. The characters can summon guardian beasts to the field to attack enemies. They can also use combination attacks that utilize most or all of the party. A new feature in 5.180.24.3/info/wild" target="_blank">Wild 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">Arms 5 is the ability to chain attacks together. This lets one of Dean's party members attack two to five times provided they have the Violator Badge equipped and enough bullets to make the attack.

Each playable character is equipped with an ARM, a specialized kind of gun that deals physical damage in a range that varies for each character, from one-hex away to any hex. The 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">ARMs must be reloaded after a number of shots by having the character defend for one round. While each character has a specific ARM, there are cartridges that can be added to increase its firepower. The 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">ARMs also have their own stats that can be boosted by using "dragon fossil" items acquired during play. Like in other 5.180.24.3/info/wild" target="_blank">Wild 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">Arms games, ARM is an acronym, though its actual meaning is obscure. There are two versions given in the game.
By the time the player is able to control three characters at once early in the game, the tools known as mediums are introduced. In this version, they are portable computer devices with mystical qualities. Each character can only equip one medium at a time and there are six available mediums throughout the game. Each medium specializes in affecting specific parameters and granting the character unique Original and Force abilities.




= Exploration

5.180.24.3/info/wild" target="_blank">Wild 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">Arms 5 is a third-person video game.

Upon entering the cave, they find a girl curled up within the Golem's hand. The girl only remembers two things, her name (Avril), and the words Johnny Appleseed.

Development


The game makes use of CGI to create a 3D effect, including a slow camera pan drift. The player can zoom in and out from different angles during gameplay. There are also several computer generated cut scenes. The art style for the characters is a typical anime look, as opposed to a realistic or super deformed one. In addition, the game features a wide selection of alternate costumes for all the playable characters, including several originally used by characters from the previous 5.180.24.3/info/wild" target="_blank">Wild 5.180.24.3/info/arms" target="_blank">Arms games, that can be obtained during gameplay.
