This practice has since been used in every localized One Piece game since.Ī sequel was made, titled One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2, for the Playstation 3 and Playstation Vita. Notably, this is the first One Piece game to forgo an English dub in the US, instead opting to just add subtitles to the original Japanese audio. However, the former would be able to get it retail while the latter would only be able to obtain the game by download via Play Station Network.
Much to the surprise of the fanbase, it was announced that Europe and North America would get the game too (released on Septemand September 25, 2012, respectively). The game was released on Main Japan for the Playstation 3. The story covers most of the manga's storyline, specifically some of the more important fights in the series (Don Krieg, Arlong, Crocodile, etc).
The game follows the standard Warriors formula: you run around a stage beating up waves and waves of enemies while achieving objectives to unlock the main opponent and defeat them. After adapting Gundam and Fist of the North Star into Warriors games, Bandai Namco and Koei decided to give One Piece the same treatment.
