‘One Piece Odyssey’ Revealed for 2022 in New Announcement Trailer

Fans of the One Piece series will get to set sail on a brand new adventure later this year! Bandai Namco Entertainment has revealed the next One Piece video game, One Piece Odyssey, featuring an original story from series creator Eiichiro Oda.

ONE PIECE ODYSSEY transports the Straw Hats to a mysterious new island where they embark on quests and fight powerful enemies and massive bosses in exciting turn-based battles. In the game, players take on the role of nine of their favorite pirates, playing as Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Nami, Franky, Sanji, Usopp, Nico Robin, TonyTony Chopper, and Brook. A new character revealed during the livestream, the cheerful and towering Adio, joins the Straw Hats in their latest adventure.

There is so much to unpack and get excited about in One Piece Odyssey. For starters, we get to experience a whole new adventure with the Straw Hat Pirates on a beautiful new island. Plus, the combat promises to be turn-based, which is personally my favorite style of play. How many of the Straw Hats can you have in a party, though? Will Odyssey be an open-world experience or more linear? Despite these lingering questions, I still can’t wait to jump right into this game later this year.

This year, One Piece celebrates its 25th Anniversary and it appears as if Oda is sparing no expense. In addition to the conclusion of the epic Wano saga in the manga and anime, One Piece is getting a new original movie “Red”, a live-action Netflix series, and now a new RPG adventure in One Piece Odyssey. It’s certainly an amazing time to be a One Piece fan.

We are happy to be joining the celebration of the 25th anniversary of One Piece with the release of ONE PIECE ODYSSEY,” said Katsuaki Tsuzuki, Producer at BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Inc.We have been teaming up with ILCA Inc. and have been working hard in collaboration with Eiichiro Oda to create a great adventure drama that touches the world of ONE PIECE in a game that we hope will surpass players expectations.”

One Piece Odyssey is set to release in 2022 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
