In the fifth Wild Arms 5 , the player returns to the spaghetti western world of Filgaia as the young Dean Stark. Dean is a boy who dreams of becoming a hunter of golems, the huge, ancient machines that were once built to serve mankind. Along with his childhood friend Rebecca Streisand, and Avril Vent Fleur, a mysterious girl who falls from the sky, Dean sets out on an adventure to chase his dream of becoming a golem hunter and to help Avril recover her memories.
Wild Arms 5 is a third-person role-playing game where the player explores the world and fights battles in turn-based combat sequences with up to 3 characters in your party. The playing field during combat is split in seven hexagonal sections, of which some have special properties. Players can use guardian beasts, combination arts (team work), chain attacks, original attacks and others. Just like the previous game, these are based on a force meter, which increases when characters attack or are being attacked.
In the exploration mode, Dean and his party can use vehicles or run around, and during dungeon exploration there are two modes: Action (jumps, slides, interaction) and Shooting (through ARMS, Dean can choose from various cartridges to interact with the environment, destroying or manipulating it).

Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
This is a fantasy role-playing game where players explore the world of Filgaia, uncovering ancient lost technology called "golems" from ruins. The game focuses on unraveling the mystery behind the disappearance of this advanced civilization and its impact on the present.
Story
The World of Filgaia
Long ago, the world of Filgaia possessed technology beyond imagination. The lives of those who wielded this technology, and the reasons for its disappearance along with all historical records, remain a mystery.
The prized remnants of this ancient lost technology are known as "golems". These golems are being excavated from ruins across the world. They serve as a reminder to the people of Filgaia that such advanced things once existed.

How to Play
The area outside of towns and dungeons is called the "Filgaia Map". Areas within towns and dungeons are called the "Active Field".
Filgaia Map Information
•
A. Shows available actions and corresponding buttons. Actions change based on the character's location.
•
B. Mini-map for checking bearings and travel direction.
•
C. Displays exact coordinates if a specific item is equipped.
•
D. Shows if encounter-break is on or off. Toggle with the R2 button.
Using the Mini-Map
The character is always in the center of the mini-map. A white line shows the direction of movement, and a white V-shape indicates the character's heading.
Map edges are marked with "N" for north, "S" for south, "E" for east, and "W" for west. Green marks designate field area entrances or save points. Equipping a special item can increase the mini-map's displayed area.
Using the Map of Filgaia
To display the map of Filgaia, press the START button while on the Filgaia Map. Use L1 or R1 to display the entire map or scroll between southwest, southeast, northwest, and northeast quadrants.
Your current location is a "V" mark. Visited places are squares: green for towns/villages, red for dungeons.
Traveling the Filgaia Map
Use the left stick to move the character and the right stick to change the camera perspective. You will encounter save points, berry trees, and other interactive objects.
Press the button to interact with objects.
Search System
Press the button while navigating the Filgaia Map to use the search system. This helps find undiscovered items like treasure boxes and other surprises.

Traveling by Vehicle
On the Filgaia Map, you can travel by train or Monowheel. To use the Monowheel, you need the "Call Whistle" to summon it.

Route trackers indicate connected sections of the dungeon. A blue mark means a route not yet taken, yellow means visited, and red means just came from.
Press the SELECT button to show or hide route trackers.
