One Piece Unlimited Cruise Episode 2 - New, In Stock

«©NCSX» In the first episode of One Piece Unlimited Cruise, Luffy and the crew of the Jolly Roger found themselves in an adventure which spanned a series of islands. Players started the game off with Luffy but eventually got to control all of the members of the Straw Hats Pirates crew in sequential bite-sized episodes.

The sequel to the first Unlimited Cruise game features more of the same but new islands such as Desert Island and Marsh Island may be visited and conquered. New characters and adversaries also join the cast to provide drama and adversity such as
Eustace "Captain" Kidd who leads the Kidd Pirates on the high seas. The sequel also allows players to choose any character at any time - if you're initially traipsing around Desert Island as Namie, you can simply press the "-" button and select another Straw Hats Pirates from the roster of nine.


When NCS opened preorders for the game a few months ago, Bandai touted an improved battle system but after playing the game for about an hour this morning, it feels the same as before. For example, Luffy's spin-kick attack and punches haven't changed. Tools such as the pickaxe, the fishing pole, or the net are still handled the same way as before by wagging the Wii Remote in side-to-side motion.
