Sony Computer Entertainment has given away some more tidbits on the battle system of its upcoming PlayStation 2 title Wild ARMS: The Fourth Detonator. In the Media Vision-developed title, players can teach their characters special techniques known as Originals. However, instead of just waiting for the next level up, the game's developers will offer players another way to acquire those valuable techniques: The so-called GC Graph. The GC graph will show a character's stats and the skills, he has already learned. Upon levelling up, players will receive a certain amount of GC points which they can use to gain skills and Originals of a higher level than their current one. What kind of skills or Originals they will gain through this method is up to the player to decide.

Wild ARMS: The Fourth Detonator will be released in Japan on March 24th for 6,800 yen ($64.38 US).
