Meanwhile he Eiichiro Oda manga has taken a break to prepare the final part of the adventure of Luffy and company, One Piece Odyssey does not stop to show us more content. This time during the Anime Expo 2022 we have received a good dose of gameplay.
Specifically 18 minutes in which Bandai Namco and ILCA want to make clear to us the virtues of the JRPG. The plot will let us go through the mysterious island of Waford, of which we only have information thanks to ancient writings and the Straw Hats gang will end up on it after being swallowed by a storm.
During the video we can see how to make use of the different skills of each of the crew members. For example, Luffy is able to use his rubber moves to reach inaccessible places, Chopper has no problem sneaking through tiny places and Franky builds bridges without any difficulty.
However, unlike what was seen in the saga Pirate Warriors, here we abandon the musou formula to move on to turn-based combat. Here they will fight several characters at the same time with a scheme that is more than familiar to veterans of the genre.
We will also have new characters like Lim, a girl who hates pirates or Goodbye Luck, an explorer who has also been shipwrecked in Waford. One Piece Odyssey is scheduled for release in 2022 for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC
