The main adjustments in StarArena 005 are focused on the front, where Color-Confusion is gradually being rectified in Batch #01. The Fourth Power, symbolizing Earth, had two different colors on the game board: Yellow and Green. However, yellow is slowly phased out.
All game portals that follow from this point onward are based on the Second-Edition mechanical upgrades. The item and design was only resized to better fit its box for transportation.
