One Piece: Burning Blood is a One Piece video game for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PS Vita, and PC which was released in Japan on April 21, 2016.

Gameplay

Similar to the Grand Battle! series, One Piece: Burning Blood is a 1-on-1 fighting game, featuring 3v3 melee style fights, where each player picks a team of 3 characters and 3 support characters. The player can switch between characters during battles and use partners for assist attacks, such as tagging in with the Unity Chain/Assist/Clash when certain special moves properly connect (which however, can be countered by the victim's opposing Unity-based mechanic and vice versa). However, teams can be constructed via 1, 2 or 3 members total, with varying combinations of both playable characters and supports being limited by a number (e.g. some teams may involve 1 character with a large-handful of supports, while some teams have the 3 character limit filled with only 1 or 2 supports).

However, the overall gameplay is much more akin to Spike Chunsoft's other fighting games, which primarily revolves around free-sandboxed-3D movement and basic attack strings allocated to a single button, along with specific button combinations which can allow access to special moves (holding down the special trigger button and combining it with three other basic buttons). Overall, the game somewhat follows the style of prior Spike Chunsoft-developed game, J-Stars Victory Vs. (which also features characters from One Piece), albeit in a more restricted 1-on-1 scheme along with different features. Just like several fighting games and J-Stars Victory Vs. alike, it is a recent fighting game to introduce an "auto-combo-into special move finisher" mechanic in its basic attack chain.

Unlike most fighting games in this scheme however, Burning Blood is unique in the fact that the default guard button is not allocated to a trigger button, and is instead allocated to a standard button instead (default is circle button). There are two main attacks: normal attack and unique attack; both attacks can be performed in a direction (towards the opponent or away from the opponent) for varying moves (back + attack = ranged attack while back + unique is another unique attack). The guard break mechanic is also carried over from J-Stars Victory Vs., albeit in two forms: first is the weak/light guard break done with the attack + jump that can break-through guards fairly fast, and second is the heavy/strong guard break done with unique + guard that trades startup for solid tracking ability to beat sidesteps with. Normal attacks can also be branched into other moves such as a ranged attack or a light guard break depending on the character.

It focuses on fighting with Devil Fruit abilities (also known as "Ability" in-game) and Haki, which can be activated by the "Ability" button which drains the ability gauge to use Haki and/or Devil Fruit abilities. Logia users will be able to use their powers to avoid damage (known as Logia Guard in-game, and involves use of one of the trigger buttons akin to a standard guard button in 3D brawlers), though they remain susceptible to guard breaks and Haki-based attacks. Some characters can nullify Devil Fruit Abilities, preventing Devil Fruit users from using their abilities for a short period. In addition to playable characters, there are also support characters that can produce different effects when used in battle.

As characters attack and/or take damage, their Burning Gauge fills, which is used to fuel team-based techniques (via the aforementioned Unity Chains, Unity Assists, and Unity Clashes) and when it is full allows the character to activate their Awakening which allows them perform their Ultimate moves and/or transform into more powerful forms, such as Luffy being able to transform to Gear Fourth in battle. Ultimate moves akin to the aforementioned J-Stars Victory Vs., are also done the same way (tap R3/Right thumbstick by default or a corner of the Vita screen).

Another unique mechanic is the "Flash" mechanic, which comes into two forms: the Flashguard is a parry-based guard that can easily allow for a quick recovery to punish an incoming attack's recovery lag. On the other hand, the Flash Counter is done by pressing forward (towards the opponent) + attack during a connecting blow from the opposition (even when suffering hits in a standard combo) though with very strict timing; a successful Flash Counter will cause your charcter to automatically Flashguard an attack and use a specific attack to strike back at the opponent for a free possible followup. However, both forms of guard breaks cannot be Flashguarded or Flash Countered, nor can certain special moves.

The game features a level up system for playable characters that allows them to grow stronger as they fight in various game modes (except for Free Battle Mode), though all playable characters will receive some experience regardless of whether or not they are used in battle.

Another unique feature of this game is the differences between each version of its characters; a majority of characters akin to EX/Ura (Reverse) versions of characters in fighting games possess different movesets (e.g. Kung-Fu Luffy's moveset being different from both pre-timeskip Luffy and current Luffy). Most of these characters may be either unlocked normally or purchased through DLC.

Trivia

  • This is the first One Piece game:
    • To be released on an Xbox console.
    • That allows Luffy to transform into Gear Fourth.
    • That features Gild Tesoro as a playable character; he is also able to use Haki.
  • Jesus Burgess does not have Haki in the game despite him being shown to utilize it in the manga and anime series.
  • Though Pacifista can be fought against in-game, they cannot be unlocked and thus act as unplayable enemies.
  • When selecting Rob Lucci in the Additional character selection menu and Lucci's battle intro, Hattori wearing a white coat, necktie, and hat (based on his outfit from One Piece Film: Gold) appears sitting on Lucci's shoulder.
    • As Rob Lucci's playable form is based on his appearance in One Piece Film: Gold, he can use Haki in the game.
