The series One Piece Warriors, designed by Eiichiro Oda, is certainly popular and followed all over the world for many years, do you think the first publication in Japan dates back to 1997.

For the less experienced we say that the game tells the adventures of the crew of pirates known as “Straw Hat”, this is because of the unique clothing held by captain Rufy, a boy who has eaten the Devil Fruit “Gom Gom” and since then is able to stretch out of proportion, although the curse of the fruit prevents them from swimming. Their goal is to travel along the Grand Line in search of the mysterious treasure “One Piece”, a symbol that represents the title of “King of Pirates”.

The protagonist of history, the character you will use in each level – although sometimes some of the others will give you temporarily change – is certainly Rufy, who, using his skills and extensive elastic will often having to launch each of the levels, using steps otherwise unattainable.

The levels are divided into effects into three categories: Action, Musou and Boss. The first follow the pattern described above: Rubber (or whoever) will face from time to time groups of enemies and the occasional semi-boss, moving from one area to the next level by exploiting the ability of his body and thus overcoming small puzzles. Usually at the end of a scenario Action will pass a Boss itself, but some special scenarios put these clashes independent levels – levels Boss, in fact. Musou levels, which represent the “battles” between the pirates, instead reflect more closely the style of the development team Omega Force – famous, remember, especially for the Dynasty Warriors series.

The game follows the series for most of Tecmo Koei Musou: you will have a key to the fast attack and one for the powerful, you can create a number of combos, special bar will fill up as you make or receive attacks, once complete, you can perform the most devastating move the character (the Musou attack, in fact), continuing in the history, this bar will grow to other segments allowing more special attacks, or more powerful attacks.

A video of the next version of One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 was presented recently, it is possible to admire all the members of the Straw Hat Crew and in particular to see in action the moves and shots each character’s special selection. With this second episode developed by Omega Force team will be able to relive the adventures of Luffy and his companions near Impel Down and Thriller Bark, the two places that will be included in the game in addition to Skypiea.

Another first published in the Japanese magazine Shonen Jump, regards Marco the Phoenix, commander of the First Fleet of Whitebeard in One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 will be a playable character. It is also revealed the presence of a bar that, once charged, allows to recall a partner to combine attacks. Evolution of combo attacks with friends seen in the first episode, we find in the bottom of the scan Jozu and Vista, two other fleet commanders of Whitebeard, who will partner to invoke.

It can therefore be deduced that the cast will no doubt be bigger than the first chapter, however, not all characters may be playable but only used as a strike partner. Remember that the game will be released on March 20 in Japan, while in the rest of the world probably have to wait for the summer for the PS3 and PS Vita. One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 will take the gameplay in Dynasty Warriors style have already been tried in the first chapter of the series and in the various games produced by Namco Bandai and Tecmo Koei, including the two titles of Fist of the North Star manga inspired Kenshiro.
