One Piece Odyssey certainly looks impressive, but since it features a new story, its trailers haven’t yet touched us much on an emotional level… until now.
The new trailer revealed today shows how our heroes end up visiting a version of Alabasta made from their memories, and like everything including Alabasta and Vivi, things get emotional really quickly.
While this is not a retelling of the Alabasta Arc, it definitely looks like it’s going to play with the fans’ heartstrings. We even get to see the good old Going Merry.
That being said, two years have passed and the members of the crew have changed since the Alabasta Arc, so, while the world created by their memories appears the same, the events and adventures awaiting us will tell a different story.
You can check out the trailer below, and if you’re a One Piece fan, I challenge you not to tear up at least a bit.
One Piece Odyssey will launch for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC on January 13, 2023.
If you’d like to see more of the game, you can check out the original announcement,  bunch of details and screenshots, and the latest gameplay.
If you’re unfamiliar with One Piece, the original manga by Eiichiro Oda debuted all the way back in 1997 on Shueiusha’s popular magazine Weekly Shounen Jump and it’s still ongoing, having recently passed its 100th volume.
It has sparked one of the most long-lived anime series of all time, which has recently passed the 1,000th episode.
Of course, there have also been plenty of movies, video games, and a live-action series on Netflix is also coming.
