One Piece Dawn Strike will be an arcade game based on the anime and manga, and it’ll appear in Japanese arcades in 2025. So far, we only know what the cabinet and gameplay look like, as well as when and where the location tests will be.
One Piece Dawn Strike will be a punching game that puts you into The Great Pirate Era. If it’s similar to other boxing arcade games, it will likely have you punch the target on the cabinet when the game prompts you to in order to defeat enemies that appear on screen.
We will be able to see the game in action between August 22 and September 1, 2025, as that’s when the location test will be. You can test out the game at the Namco Yokohama World Porters Store, and the arcade will be open from 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM. During the location test, you can fight against Donquixote Doflamingo and Kaidou, who are two powerful characters in the One Piece anime and manga.
