Having found success in making Dragon Ball Z get away from fighting exclusive mechanics, they are doing a proper experiment on having an original One Piece game with full RPG mechanics and finally, we got to know more about One Piece Odyssey.

The japanese publisher Bandai Namco finally gave us more details about expectations on how big the RPG mechanics will be on One Piece Odyssey and probably we will revive the good old days of jRPGS.

First and surprisingly, One Piece Odyssey will feature a command-battle system mixed with actions that will require you to be at a certain distance from your enemy to maintain some dynamics despite turn-based RPG for some reason, declined on being a constant formula.

Battles also feature random events called Dramatic Scenes, which classicals jRPG and RPG games fans could recognize as random battles depending on how deep the exploration of a map goes.

One Piece Odyssey is Bandai Namco original game not based on the manga or anime and was described as:

During their voyage, the Straw Hats, led by Monkey D. Luffy are swallowed by a huge storm at sea. They end up on a mysterious island full of nature amidst the storm and become separated from each other. The crew sets out on a new adventurous journey filled with wonders of a raging nature, powerful enemies, and strange encounters with island locals. Work together with Luffy and his crew to set sail once again!

The game is slated to release later this year on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S/X.
