Manga-inspired One Piece: Pirate Warriors is coming to Europe on 21st September for PlayStation 3, publisher Namco Bandai has announced.

Developed by Dynasty Warriors creators Omega Force and Tecmo Koei Games, the cel-shaded One Piece: Pirate Warriors looks to follow in that series' footsteps with large scale battles against armies of foes. Only this time you play as a boy with an elastic body.

The game will support both online and local co-op, and Namco promises Pirate Warriors will be faithful to the original One Piece manga by Eiichiro Oda. It will be available in both retail and digital formats.

To see the cartoon mayhem in action, check out the Japanese trailer below.
