All of this world is composed of formulas, the blessing of nature, the pulse of life, the emotion of humans, even your despair...
All of them is just a result from those formulas. And that idea is not about to change. Do you understand? Well, I guess you can't. Then I will show it to you with this experiment...
While not much can be gleaned from it, "One Piece: World Seeker" shows what appears to be some sort of a Marines base, where the said "experiment," if it was meant in a literal sense, is taking place. Luffy is even shown battling some of them in the trailer.
Following the "One Piece: World Seeker" first look, fans are left feeling like Luffy is out of place in the world because of the lack of elements associated with the series.
However, many are impressed by the gameplay as it showcases a variety of abilities that Luffy can use. For one, he can be seen using his stretchy arms to get around. At the end of the trailer, he is seen in stealth mode inside a barrel.
"One Piece: World Seeker" is deemed the most ambitious game based on the franchise due to its "seamless and expansive" world (the footage only showed a small section of this massive map.
However, it does not look like other Straw Hat Pirates will be part of the action, which means that it will be centered on Luffy only.
"One Piece: World Seeker" will be released in 2018 on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
