Gameplay
The game features a cel-shaded artstyle, similar to the One Piece anime.[1] The game features an “advanced battle system”, which allows players to perform stronger attacks and block normal attacks from enemies.[2] Similar to the Grand Battle! series, One Piece: Burning Blood is a 1-on-1 (and up to 9 vs 9) fighting game. It will focus on fighting and devil fruit abilities, with Logia users being able to use their powers to avoid damage.
