One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2

One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 is a One Piece related video game to be released in Japan for the Sony PlayStation 3 and Sony PS Vita. The game was announced in Shonen Jump magazine as a sequel to One Piece: Pirate Warriors, with Namco Bandai and Tecmo Koei teaming up once again to publish it along with developer Omega Force, a subsidiary of Tecmo Koei.

Gameplay

The game will also feature a new Partner system to replace the Crew Strike system from the first game. After your character builds up a certain meter they will be able to use a special attack and switch to playing as their partner.

There will also be a new Haki usage system and Style Change system. Characters with Haki can activate it to knock out enemies (Haoshoku) enhance the power of your attacks (Busoshoku) or to instantly chain into combos (Kenbunshoku).

The style change meter fills up as your character defeats foes. The style changes depending on your character's style type.

You can also earn money in and after completing stages to spend on leveling up characters faster or in an in-game store to buy movies, music and more.

Prologue

The story starts after the two year timeskip, just after the crew reached the New World. They got surrounded by a Marine fleet led by Monkey D. Garp. He shoots his Ryuusei Meteor against the ship, then the Marine soldiers assault the pirates. After a short battle, which involves all the crew members, Luffy directly attacks an enemy ship with his Gomu Gomu no Rocket and fights Smoker. After this, Luffy comes back to the ship and the Knock Up Stream launches them up to Skypiea.

Difference with the Canon Storyline

• The crew does not meet a Marine fleet after their entrance to the New World in the manga. However, they do meet one in the Z's Ambition Arc, though it's led by Momonga.
• The crew has never fought against Smoker on a ship, nor against a fleet led by both Smoker and Garp.
