“It’s time – to travel to the heart of our memories.
In the midst of their latest ocean voyage, the Straw Hat Pirates have seen their ship swallowed by a mighty storm.
Shipwrecked, the crew members wash ashore on a mysterious island, blessed with natural gifts, and protected by a ring of storms all around.
Separated from their friends, and with the Thousand Sunny sinking into the depths...
Luffy and the others must embark on a new adventure to escape from this storm-buffeted island!”
Together with the announcement, Bandai also released an interview featuring One Piece Odyssey producer Katsuaki Tsuzuki, which you can watch below.
