Bandai has dropped a new trailer for One Piece Odyssey. And they confirmed that players would get to explore Water Seven in the upcoming RPG game. The two-minute trailer, published on YouTube on November 7, gave gamers and fans the first look into the iconic One Piece world.
Water Seven is the second canon-based location incorporated into the game. To recall, Bandai announced in October that the Kingdom of Alabasta, another fan-favorite world, would be part of the upcoming JRPG.
In a press release, Bandai said the story for Water Seven in One Piece Odyssey would focus on Captain Monkey D. Luffy's search for Usopp and Robin.
The Japanese developer said that fans would be delighted to learn that familiar faces and locations will be coming to the game. The Franky Family and CP9 will make an appearance. Players can also explore the Gallery-La Company.
Meanwhile, new gameplay features have been added to the game. These include Zoro's Ashura Ichibugin technique and Luffy's Gear 2 transformation. Both can be unleashed during combat.
In One Piece Odyssey, the Straw Hat Crew finds themselves in Waford Island, a game-original setting. Then, players will go on quests that link the past and present of the shonen manga's storyline. As a turn-based RPG, they will also get to try and learn more about the storied members of the Straw Hat Crew.
Bandai will launch One Piece Odyssey on January 13, 2023. It will be available on PC, PlayStation 5, Series X, and PlayStation 4.
