One Piece Odyssey is taking the long-running anime in a new direction next year, adopting a turn-based combat system as opposed to the action that Straw Hat Pirate aficionados may be accustomed to. You’re probably going to want to try it out for yourself then, yeah? Well, fortunately publisher Bandai Namco has got your back, and is adding a demo to the PS Store on 10th January, 2023.
The full game will, of course, launch a few days later, on 13th January, 2023, but in this age of digital downloads, there’s no real obligation to pre-order early anymore – unless you really want a physical copy, of course. Either way, you’ll have a few days to try out the demo and make up your mind before rushing to your favourite retailer – all good.
There’s a new trailer above which should give you a flavour for the release’s cinematics. Is this one on your radar at all? Will you be giving the demo a whirl? Let us know in the comments section below.

No thanks.
Good, since I’m still not sure if I should get it, even though I’m a ONE PIECE fan
This game is going to make my cry a lot again, won't it?
Its always a good thing to get a demo, will try it!
IGN..Gave this game a overall positive preview..Not based off the Demo though..But I can't wait to check out the demo..
Shame it's so close to release. Doesn't really seem worth it, like snacking right before dinner.
I know very little about One Piece aside from the fact it's been going for years and has a solid history, but there's something about this I find very appealing. I'll definitely try the demo.
Worth mentioning that it's the kind of demo where progress carries over to the full game.
I'll probably give it a try since I'm still undecided on getting the game. I'm a huge One Piece fan who's been constantly underwhelmed by its licensed videogames, but this one feels like it's got more effort put into it than usual. We'll see.
Interested, but never watched One piece.
ugh. i was gonna get it cuz its one piece but being turn based sucks big time. i hate that, give me a full fledged open world action game like DBZ Kakarot, i was so happy when we got that cuz im tired of ALL anime games being just fighting games. i wanted them to branch out, now id stil love a full fledged Naruto rpg!
@Gaia093 Does that also mean trophies will unlock once you upgrade to the full game?
@KidBoruto I would imagine so. That's usually the case for other games where the demos get you far enough to a point where you'd earn trophies and progress is carried over - Yurukill comes to mind. No one will know for sure until the game's out, though.
@Gaia093 Hopefully that is the case here.
