Fans of the Straw Hat crew have reason to be delighted… And for good reason: on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the One Piece saga, Bandai Namco has announced the release of a new video game opus, One Piece Odyssey, for this year 2022. We take stock!
Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Nami, Usopp and the whole gang are back in new video game adventures, One Piece Odysseysoftware edited by bandai namco which is scheduled for release this year 2022 on computer (digital), PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series. An unexpected software announced with great fanfare on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the saga created by Eiichiro Odathrough a trailer revealing a bit of the story and features of the game.
What does this trailer tell us? Not much, unfortunately… Or at least enough to maintain the mystery. We thus discover, on the story side, that the Sunny seems to have sunk body and well after a tough battle. We also discover the now famous straw hat worn by Luffy washed up on a beach. But let the fans be reassured, we find the whole team on what seems to be an island, on which our heroes will have to face many dangers and other wild animals. An original story written by the manga author himself!
Side gameplay, the players will embody Luffy, but not only, it seems, since we can see throughout the trailer the different characters launching special attacks, each more impressive than the other. Note that as explained Tsuzuki Katsuakigame producer at bandai namco (and relayed by our colleagues from videogames.com), the characters and their abilities should be unveiled in the coming weeks, as the publisher communicates. All that remains is to wait for a more precise release date, friends!
