Wild Arms
Classic PlayStation JRPGs That Need to Make a Comeback
Wild Arms is a fairly successful JRPG series with entries on PS1, PS2, and PSP, and it’s probably one of the most likely candidates to return. The series has always used a kind of western/fantasy aesthetic that’s evident right from the brilliant opening of the original game. Wild Arms follows a band of adventurers known as Dream Chasers, who roam the world looking for fame and fortune. Each title in the series has some kind of turn-based combat, although some games bring more tactical elements into the mix.
The setting is always what has made Wild Arms stand out above other RPGs, along with strong character and some memorable stories. The Wild West like world is a fascinating backdrop for a JRPG, and it’s truly unfortunate we haven’t seen a new entry in the series for almost a decade.
