Grand Cruise looks great and captures the look of the anime nicely. Specific areas of the ship are available to visit, each populated with 1 or 2 characters from the show who mostly monologue about the other crew members. Whether it be a crew members quarters or the galley, each of these stations offers some light comedy clearly aimed at fans of the series. Some more dramatic explosion effects pop up during the 2 canon firing scenes and do look and feel like they were ripped right of an anime series and do a great job of making you feel like you are in this strange universe. The game is broken up into 2 sections, but both offers similar scenes and action.

Since its launch, WTMG has been a presence at E3, Brasil Game Show, and Play NYC, with more events on the way. Tekken 8 is a strong next step for one of the most iconic 3D fighting franchises. All you do is either stare at One Piece characters talking to you or partake in clunky minigames with awkward controls. Stationed in the barren arctic land of Canada, Spencer is a semi-frozen Managing Editor who plays video games like they're going out of style.

It just comes off as a cheap way to gather a younger male audience so if way over sexualized women are an issue for you, they are here. Players are given the ability to hang out in different parts of the ship with different members of the Strawhat crew. Each crew member talks about themselves and what they do on the ship while asking the player a variety of “yes or no” questions. It’s nothing too deep, but bonding with Zoro over sword-fighting, or with Chopper over medicine will make any fan’s day. There’s something truly surreal about looking around while talking to these characters from a first-person perspective, a feeling that can be attributed to just how exciting virtual reality can be. During combat, players operate cannons to shoot at enemy pirate ships and large enemies like the Kraken.

There are seven different paths that one can choose from to sail through. The clashing weather and magnetism of those first seven islands cause insane sailing conditions that are beyond nearly anything else in the first half of the Grand Line. There is nothing better then some good old-fashioned fan service, provided of course that you are a fan of whatever it is being thrown your way. ONE PIECE Grand Cruise aims to be a VR taste of the ONE PIECE universe that I am admittedly totally unfamiliar with. It’s an odd blend of anime, pirates, comedy and some of the most flamboyant characters I have seen and even after playing through this title, I still really have no idea what the heck is happening in this world.

They are divided into two teams, one red and one blue, competing for higher scores. Sanji and Zoro get into a dispute, and players use the cannons to choose which of them will defend against a giant cannonball. Fans of One Piece will get quite a lot out of Grand Cruise because of their love for the series, while people looking for an objectively good game will likely not be pleased with the experience. Like many franchise-based VR titles, Grand Cruise is focused entirely on letting players step into the world of the series they love, making it entirely hit-or-miss. Armed with a DS4 or lone Move controller, which is really only needed for the combat section of the game, you just choose which area of the ship you wish to visit and watch a scene unfold.
Latest Critic Reviews
Being able to look at One Piece characters in virtual reality might be interesting for the first minute or so, but this game is simply devoid of fun. A Log Pose for the first half of the Grand Line has only a single needle. Alternatively, a Log Pose for the second half has three needles. Each of the three needles locks on to the magnetic waves of one of three different islands.

This is because islands in the New World tend to experience changes in their magnetism. Therefore, if you lose the magnetism of one island, you still have two backup options. Furthermore, changes in magnetism can be caused by abnormalities on the island, the unstable magnetism of the island resulting in the corresponding needle jiggling.
One Piece Grand Cruise
Players can interact with Sanji in the kitchen, with Zoro on the ship's deck to train, and with Chopper in his medical offices to watch his examinations. They can also collect items from the crew by spotting them in the environment and hovering over them. One Piece Grand Cruise is an interactive, virtual reality game released in May 2018 in Japan, North and South America, and Europe.[1][2] A demo of the game was available at Tokyo One Piece Tower. Paradise stretches from the Twin Cape to the Sabaody Archipelago. Of the few pirate crews that are actually strong and skilled enough to hold their own in the Grand Line, a very small number of them actually make it all the way to Sabaody.
The scenes are minimally interactive and mostly require you to stare at a reticle that pops up on an object or person to trigger a tiny event. Once those scenes are done you are brought to the Ship deck fight where you control a canon…it’s not as exciting as it sounds. Aiming is handled by tracking the controller so you tilt and steer the DS4 to line up a targeting reticle on the incoming objects or just point with the Move. Once you hit X the game takes over and auto aims and shoots the target and you just keep doing this until the game decides to move on to another cut scene. Reputed as the "pirate's graveyard," the sea and the islands possess a vast number of unpredictable phenomena that are not seen anywhere else in the world, many of which make sailing extremely difficult.

Shallow combat, short cut scenes and an emphasis on repetition is the name of the game (or experience) here. Besides the subtitle issue, my other contention would be the over sexualized female characters. I get that this is just how things are done on the other side of the world, but for me it was laughably ridiculous and unnecessary.
His favourite genres are JRPGs, Fighting Games, and Platformers. Grand Cruise is expensive for what it has to offer with barely half an hour of playtime. As cool as it is to become a Straw Hat Pirate, the two barebones mini-games are boring to play and look pretty bad. Players board the Thousand Sunny as new deckhands and meet different members of the crew. An unidentified person speaking through Den Den Mushi acts as the main guide and narrator for the duration of the game.
