>ACE



Really though in all seriousness that's awesome! Those are some pretty bold characters and while we knew Brook, I was not expecting Boa. I quarter expected them to cash in on the

Spoiler:

Acedead Arc.

But Whitebeard should be a beast to play with! This game is just a rollercoaster of hype with no drop.

Hancock and Ace were obviously going to be in if only to cash on their fans XD Hancock did enough fighting to warrant a spot too. If Ace is in I'm expecting BB to show up as a boss too.

Isn't that the Asia version? The one that's shipped to China,Korea etc?

well, there are several asia version of a game : jpn(dub)-jpn(sub), jpn(dub)-eng(sub), and eng(dub)-eng(sub). it depends on which area of asia you are in.
AFAIK the chinese one is jpn-eng, i dunno about the korean one. many of my friends who like the jpn-eng version of a game (like FFXIII for example), usually order the chinese version of it.

i prefer they provide a free jpn dub DLC just like dynasty warriors 7, assuming it will be released worldwide, so i can just buy the game in my local store and download the dub instead of having to order it online.

ace + WB playable is a 'shut-up-and-take-my-money' moment for me.

Full scan from Weekly Shonen Jump #10.

Hmmm looks like there's a relationship meter down there. I think they done that in a lot of the Musou games.

And Garp is in there in some form.

Guessing reversable covers too (at least I cerainly hope so. This one aint as good as the earlier one)

[OPF]

Aren't there scans from the latest Weekly Famitsu Magazine (02/02)?

[black-leg jex]

Brook and ace were obvious however i wasn't expecting hancock. Whitebeard i wasn't sure. He seemed like he should be but he's pretty big. People afraid that lucci and kaku might not be playable due to size whitebeards probably just as big as them

[Shichibukai]

This game looks so awesome!

[rayleigh92]

I see an angry Garp behind Luffy...

[SomebodyUDon'tKnow]

Aces mouth looks huge...
Anywho, I am disappointed that Hancock is in as a playable, because that probably means one less other character.

In a One Piece game that usually means threw a punch.

I hope Vivi is playable. I've always liked her weapon.

that would be a waste when in the game just a few chars are playable dont you think?

[The Dude]

So wait... what's the drawback to getting the "Asia" version?

[JinbeiKun]

it wont be in english

[jackskellinghog]

it wont be in english

So I'd rather just get the Treasure Box and buy the EU version when it comes out.

Ace looks way more emotive than the anime, and yeah I agree with you it isn't fair to base character involvement in One Piece games on anything but "WHAT ARC JUST HAPPENED OR IS HAPPENING". Thought they would've played up Hody since that'd plug the anime too, but hey we still have over a month :P

Awesome to hear 3 additional characters playable besides the crew. That makes a total of 12 playable characters for now. The question is...will there be more?

EDIT: Whitebeard is Kaizoku Musou's Lu Bu/Tadakatsu Honda xD

I presume that's a heavyweight character. The fact that Whitebeard is playable to me means that I'd love to do some really weird face offs... Like in the Grand Battle opening cinematics where Arlong faced off against someone from an entirely different arc, mind you I wouldn't seeing that in the Manga either, since Oda respects his characters so much I'd like for him to just for fun toss them into a wrestling ring together or something haha!

Lucci and Kaku won't be playable tough. Some characters are announced as playable characters and some are announced as boss characters. So it's pretty clear that the bosses won't be playable, at least not in the Log modes but i hope the game will have a mode with playable bosses like Unlimited Cruise Survival and VS modes.

Okay could we stop this now please?

I've heard the same shit over a thousand times whether bosses will be playable and people have gone over and over and over the fact that in DW games some of the bosses are playable some are not. Just wait and see, there is no:

"It's clear"

"It's obvious"

"I can tell"

Because you can't. You just can't, and you won't until another scan from SJ comes in.

[Madara]

I personally dont see a reason why we cant have boss characters playable in a versus mode
they have done them for story mode with much work so i dont see why not putting the whole char not in a vs mode
would be half wasted work for me
