One Piece Odyssey features nine total party members that you will liberate as you progress, all of which are key members of the Straw Hats. As with any JRPG, each has their own skills, abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Here’s every pirate you can look forward to adventuring with:

  • Monkey D. Luffy: It wouldn’t be a One Piece game if Luffy wasn’t included. Just like in the manga, he has abilities focused around his rubber-like limbs and is a Power type character,
  • Zoro: First mate Zoro brings his three swords to battle as a Technique type. He’s great for dealing damage to groups.
  • Nami: For a Speed type, Nami uses her abilities to deal AoE attacks, but also grant buffs and debuffs.
  • Chopper: Don’t let his small stature fool you, Chopper can hit hard and support the team with healing.
  • Usopp: While he can’t fight well physically, Usopp’s got his trusty sling to snipe targets.
  • Sanji: He may not be able to kick his smoking habit, but Sanji’s Black Leg Style makes his kicks lethal to foes.
  • Nico: Another Devil Fruit consumer, Nico has the unique ability to reproduce her limbs on any surface for great range.
  • Brook: The Soul King was brought back to life by the Devil Fruit, and is now a great support character.
  • Franky: The cyborg is packing tons of weapons and gadgets, making him devastating once he enters the battle.

PlayStation had a better 2024 than it should have. Now it needs to focus
Astro Bot climbs on a DualSense controller.

This time last year, PlayStation had given us a roadmap for the brand's direction moving forward. It made grand commitments to live-service titles, put heavy investments in a mobile initiative, and continued to launch new hardware. If one were to judge PlayStation's 2024 on the rubric it set for itself, it would have been a failure. But that doesn't tell the full story.

PlayStation's 2024 felt like a restructuring phase. On the software side, we saw PlayStation embracing young players again, a decision that netted it a big Game of the Year win. Behind the games, we saw even bigger changes, specifically with the appointment of two new co-CEOs, Herman Hulst and Hideaki Nishino, that may have radical implications for the brand going forward. All of this sets the stage for a needed pivot for a brand that flirted with disaster in 2024. The only problem? That new vision hasn't been communicated yet, and fans' good will may be in short supply after a year of ups and downs.
Shifting strategy
Sony had a lot of pots on the stove this year, which made it a rollercoaster ride for fans. If there was one message PlayStation wanted to communicate as clearly as possible in 2023, it was the commitment to finding a live service hit. At the time, 12 such titles were reportedly in development and scheduled to be released between 2024 and 2026. So far, that effort has struggled to get off the starting blocks. Naughty Dog made the wise decision to cancel its Last of Us Online project to focus on single-player IPs such as the upcoming Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, but the real casualty was Concord.

At the end of 2024, Xbox finds itself at a crossroads that many fans wouldn’t have anticipated at the start of the year.

Finally bearing the fruits of its pricey Activision Blizzard acqusition, Xbox has had one of its most consistent years in terms of game output. Game Pass received a healthy number of day-one games throughout the year, and Microsoft delivered a new first-party title to the service every month between September and December.
