Xseed is about to hit a significant milestone. The new publisher has announced that it will ship its first game, the localized Wild Arms 4, to retailers on January 10. Wild Arms 4 features a new cast of characters, an original storyline, and the new strategic HEX battle system. However, it retains the series' familiar setting of Filgaia. The story follows the sheltered teenager Jude Maverick and a band of idealistic friends who come of age as they travel through Filgaia in the midst of a war. Xseed will follow Wild Arms 4 in March with the release of Shadow Hearts: From the New World.
