These range from huge flashy attacks, to buffs that turn you into an (even more) unstoppable powerhouse. Instead of building up one special meter and unleashing fury on a group of foes, you can now set four separate abilities that charge independently. One of the major changes to the series is the way that special attacks work. Whatever class you choose to play as, all of your favourite pirates have vastly different attacks and specials to discover and level up.
Each of these character types have their own quirks, but I generally found the more maneuverable Speed and Sky options more fun to play as then their clunkier alternatives. If there’s a series favourite you’d like to play as, chances are they’ll be available.Įach playable character fits into one of four classes – Power, Speed, Technique and Sky.
It wouldn’t be a Musou game without an incredibly diverse cast of characters, and Pirate Warriors 4 doesn’t disappoint in that department. There’s potentially hundreds of hours of content to be found here, with three tiers of stages to play, crew levels to grind and a host of unlockable characters. Treasure Log is a huge selection of (largely) unrelated missions. Outside of the story mode, you can replay missions as different characters in Free Log mode, or move straight into Treasure Log mode. Newcomers to the choppy waters of the series will still struggle to keep up with the narrative, but fans will enjoy the trip down memory lane all the same. Pirate Warriors 4 doesn’t suffer from spreading the story so thin, and hours of missions and cutscenes help tell the familiar story in a more fleshed out manner. In previous outings, Omega Force has tried to pack decades of the show into a handful of missions. The story focuses on eight specific (more modern) arcs of One Piece’s epic tale, beginning at the Alabasta Arc and stretching all the way to the most recent episodes. The variety lends itself well to adapting the franchise’s storyline to the game however, with missions and cutscenes covering the most important moments of the anime. One particularly irritating mission early on called for you to find the talent building in town, with a camera that doesn’t allow you to look up.
Not all of the mission types are created equal however, and the best stages are generally the ones with the basic “Defeat the enemy army” objective. Some missions will find you overcoming an army of enemies, some require you to locate a specific enemy, and some are simply one-on-one battles. There’s a huge amount of mission variety throughout One Piece Pirate Warriors 4. Protecting your allies and pushing back the enemy forces is the key to guiding Luffy and company to victory. These confrontations are where the difficulty lies, alongside strategising how to effectively push back an enemy army and capture their bases effectively. Some of these enemies have armour to break and become vulnerable after a big attack. Among these pitiful foes you’ll also find a few stronger enemies (in the case of One Piece Pirate Warriors these will often be named characters) which require a little more nuance. You’ll find yourself fighting hordes of practically defenseless enemies with over the top moves, and it’s incredibly satisfying. Now, Omega Force has returned with some big changes to this acclaimed Musou series for One Piece Pirate Warriors 4.įor someone who hasn’t played a Musou (or Warriors) style game, there’s a very specific appeal to the genre. For many, the jewel in the crown of this mountain of games is the Pirate Warrior series. From fighting games to sprawling action adventure games, Bandai Namco have ensure that fans of the popular anime could spend all of their free time playing exclusively One Piece titles. Fans of One Piece are very lucky when it comes to video game adaptations.
