One Piece Odyssey is the latest One Piece game released by Bandai Namco. This One Piece game is quite interesting because of the turn-based RPG genre. Before you play this game, there are a few things you might need to know. Have a look!

1. Pre-Order and Collector's Edition

When you want to pre-order, you might get confused about which edition to choose due that there are several versions that come with certain differences. Having a pre-order for either version, you will get the same prizes: 10 Energy Apples, 10 Excited Apples, three Golden Jelly, 100,000 Berries, and the Traveling Outfit set for seven characters.

If you have pre-ordered via GameStop, players can get a Steelbook and a Keychain. The Limited Edition includes Luffy and Lim figures, while the Deluxe Edition includes the DLC Adventure Expansion Pack, as well as the Sniper King Outfit for Usopp. Then, the Collectors Edition presents everything except the Keychain, also a special box, two in-game accessories, and three postcards.

2. Characters

Besides presenting all of the Straw Hats (Luffy, Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, Chopper, Robin, Franky, and Brook), One Piece Odyssey also presents original characters such as Adio and Lim who will also fight alongside Luffy and friends.

They both have an important role in the game. Lim has the ability to explore the memories of a person. That's why Luffy and friends can go back in time like in Arabasta, or even return to Marineford to prevent Ace's death.

3. Developers

The developer with the brilliant idea behind the games Pokémon Shining Pearl, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, and Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age is also responsible for the development of One Piece Odyssey. ILCA or "I Love Computer Art" is a developer from Japan that was founded in 2010.

Even though ILCA has never worked on a One Piece game, this developer is an expert in making 3D RPGs. When working on this game, ILCA paid attention to all the details in the anime so that it was successful in producing a game that fans loved.

4. Platform

One Piece Odyssey is released on various platforms, starting from PC via Steam, Xbox Series S/X, PS4, and PS5. Unfortunately, there is no word yet on whether this game will be available for Nintendo Switch and Xbox One in the future. In addition, this game also does not provide multiplayer features like turn-based RPGs in general.

5. Gameplay

One Piece Odyssey features interesting opponents, extensive dungeons to explore, and puzzles that can be quite difficult to solve. The higher the level that the characters upgrade, they will get various abilities and unique skills, as you usually find in other JRPGs.

Players are tasked with collecting the memories of the Straw Hat Pirates while they are in Waford which will later explore the world of memories and regain the lost powers of each character.

6. Story and Combat

As one of the most expensive anime produced, Oda's stories and characters have never disappointed fans, including the game One Piece Odyssey. If you play One Piece Odyssey, you might feel this game as one of the arcs in the One Piece anime, more specifically, filler arcs.

Even the monsters in this game were also designed by Eiichiro Oda. One Piece Odyssey is also the first One Piece game with a turn-based RPG genre. This is a masterpiece for RPG and One Piece lovers.

7. The Memory World

What's interesting about One Piece Odyssey is the story that doesn't start from the beginning of the series. At the beginning of the story, the Straw Hat crew already has 9 members (the last being Brook). But there is a Memory World feature that allows players to visit places the Straw Hats have visited in the past.

There are various places that can be visited for now such as Arabasta and Water Seven. Players can do anything in the world without changing the future. This game is also interesting for those who don't follow the One Piece anime (only read the manga).

8. Switch Party Members Anytime You Want

Just like in the Pokemon games, there are certain obstacles in the One Piece Odyssey game that only certain characters can pass. For example, Chopper can pass through a fairly narrow area, Usopp can shoot targets from a distance, and so on. This is why party members can be changed whenever the player wants.

9. Dramatic Scene System

What makes One Piece Odyssey more interesting is the Dramatic Scene system. You could say this is a bonus that players can open at certain challenges. Dramatic Scenes can be obtained from certain quests such as for example saving party members like Usopp who are frightened by enemies.

10. Not Related to the Anime

ILCA as a developer really studied everything in the One Piece anime before working on this game, starting from the character traits, the jokes they make, and what the world is like in One Piece. With the help of Eiichiro Oda, One Piece Odyssey is a very fun game to play.
