One Piece Odyssey Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
After the first initial trailer of One Piece Odyssey, I wasn't sure what to expect. We got told it was an RPG with a story told by Oda. The graphics looked great, and we got only a few details of the characters. Luckily ILCA gave us a dev diary soon…
ONE PIECE ODYSSEY is a fantastic journey with the Straw Hat Crew, that combines a light-hearted adventure, with a fun and flashy combat system. A must-play if you’re a ONE PIECE fan, though still very much recommended even if you’re not.
Once Piece Odyssey has everything fans of the franchise could want. A great art style mixed with standard turn-based RPG mechanics combine with an entertaining re-telling of Luffy and crew’s adventures for a fun time. While there are some storytelling pacing issues, most fans of One Piece won’t mind being interrupted for yet another cutscene.
Despite having a story that beats around the bush, One Piece Odyssey has a lot to offer. With an arduous combat system and engaging equipment system, this game tries to bring new flavors to the RPG genre. Highly recommend JRPG players to try this game, or else you'll be missing out.
A stunning One Piece game great for fans and JRPG newbies, but one that won't satisfy hardened min-maxers.
Overall, One Piece Odyssey is a fun experience for anyone just looking for a relatively easy RPG that has a great cast of characters, an interesting enough story, and plays well within its limits. But those limitations are fairly strict and you could very easily end up losing interest if the battle system or story doesn’t grab you enough early on.
One Piece Odyssey is a rousing adventure thanks to its engaging combat, liberating character customization, and beautiful environments. Sometimes, design choices limit player agency, but the effect rarely lasts long. The end result is a mostly satisfying JRPG that should keep fans hooked, provided they make it through the forgettable first few hours and take advantage of the various systems. After a few initial rough patches, the game lives up to most of its potential and is easy to recommend as both a One Piece experience and a JRPG.
One Piece Odyssey might not establish a new standard in the JRPG genre, but it is still an entertaining experience.
One Piece Odyssey delivers a great One Piece adventure, but without regard to the source material, is simply a good but unremarkable RPG. Hardcore One Piece fans will eat this up like a smorgasbord of Sanji's cooking, but even with the Memoria sections, it's a lot for newcomers to take in. The overly-simplistic gameplay and excessive handholding would likely be off putting for RPG fans who are in search of a good game but don't care about the source material. Those who are not already familiar with the exploits of the Straw Hat Pirates are probably better off sailing past Waford, but this is t...
Games based on popular properties can be forgiven for focusing on their current fans. Still, One Piece Odyssey overestimates the scope of its fame and neglects those unfamiliar with its work.
One Piece Odyssey unfortunately fits the “it takes twenty hours to get good” shoe. I find it difficult to recommend it to those who aren’t already fans of the series, and not just because it’s a mostly bland RPG.
