The latest issue of Weekly Jump reveals two new One Piece games are in development. One is a PlayStation VR-exclusive title called One Piece: Grand Cruise, while the other is untitled.
Here is information on both games:
One Piece: Grand Cruise (PlayStation VR)
- The game’s genre, release date, and price have yet to be announced.
- The game’s content is also yet to be announced, but screenshots in the magazine show exploration of a ship. This is only a guess, but perhaps it is a game where you interact with your crewmates?
- A special demo of the game will be playable by up to eight users at once at the “Tokyo One Piece Tower” event in Tokyo Tower on July 22.
Unprecedented One Piece Game (Platforms Unknown)
- The game is code-named “Dawn” and is being developed in collaboration between Shueisha, Toei Animation, and Bandai Namco.
- It is an “unprecedented One Piece game.” (In other words, it has not been done before.)
- It is a game with an unheard of, super new feeling.
- The original author, Eiichiro Oda, is cooperating on development.
- Planning and conception is taking quite some time.
- It’s an enormous game. The setting and music from the anime are being poured into the game.
