Beat enough up, and you'll weaken them enough that their commander will suddenly appear, in order to mount one last offensive against you. Divided into strongholds, you'll start out with the odds stacked against you, and an enemy team that's in control of practically every one - but as you beat people up in a specific stronghold, you'll start weakening their grip. Not willing to let his crewmates serve an unknown power, it's up to you to scour the world to find, and free your shipmates from the influence of the dials which, in the context of the game, basically means beating loads of people up.Īt its heart, each level follows a fairly similar pattern - after choosing your character, you'll be plonked at one end of a level, with your objective being to fight your way through thousands and thousands of enemies in a struggle for control of various areas of the map. Unfortunately for them, rather than being the discovery of the century, the dials soon start to pump out a noxious gas that brainwashes Luffy's crew into working against him. The tale begins when the Straw Hat Pirates happen across a load of magical snail/seashells known as dials that can be used as transponders. One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2, the latest in a long line of gaming spin-offs, is essentially a gigantic beat 'em up - but rather than a strictly one on one affair, things here are on a much larger scale. Luffy, who can stretch his limbs as though they were made of rubber, it's about as oddball and weird as you'd expect - and that makes it perfect fodder for a game adaptation.

With over 280 million copies of the Manga series sold in 2012 in Japan alone, it's potentially quite hard to grasp just how popular the series is. While it may not be the most familiar of shows to readers in the UK, thanks at least in part to its rather limited availability on TV, the Anime/Manga One Piece is one of the many things that's incredibly big in Japan.
