One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2's Western Promo Streamed
posted on by Egan Loo
The European arm of Namco Bandai Games began streaming an "All-Star Attacks!" promotional video for its One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 game on Monday. The four-minute video previews the new fighting techniques of the nine main playable pirate characters: Monkey D. Luffy, Tony Tony Chopper, Sanji, Nami, Brook, Nico Robin, Franky, Usopp, and Roronoa Zoro. (Namco Bandai Games streamed the same video, without English subtitles but with information about bonuses, in Japan last month.)
The game sequel will be set in the New World arc of Eiichiro Oda's original manga and Toei's anime adaptation with powered-up characters and action. It will also introduce a new original mode called Pirate's Log," new characters, and new stages such as the Punk Hazard arc.
Namco Bandai Games will release the game in Japan on the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita systems on March 20, while its European and American branches will release the title for PlayStation 3 this summer.
