Bandai Namco's One Piece World Seeker's first bit of DLC is finally coming, and there's a teaser trailer detailing some of what fans can expect from it.

Players will take on the role of Zoro while they take part in some intense battles using his trademark Santoryu battle style. Zoro will be tasked with figuring out what's going on with a kooky old robotics factory.

In the action-adventure game based on the popular anime and manga series One Piece, players jump into the shoes of Monkey D. Luffy as he takes on enemies throughout Jail Island. There are baddies around every corner as you explore the New World. And you know Luffy ain't no dumb-dumb – yo ho ho, he took a bit of Gum Gum!

Combat features various different elements, including stealth and Luffy's Observation Haki, so he can see enemies no matter where they are, even behind walls. You'll see familiar techniques from the anime as well, like the Gum Gum Rocket as well as the Gum Gum Bazooka.

Our own Donovan Erskine, Intern Extraordinaire, reviewed One Piece World Seeker, awarding it a 5 out of 10. Here's what he had to say:

"Fans of the One Piece anime and manga will probably find more to enjoy in the World Seeker experience than most gamers. Once you get past the pretty surface, you’ll find that there isn’t much below it. The story is middling, lacking the excitement and action you would expect from a property like One Piece. A small handful of intriguing characters along with some fun unlockable abilities were the sole highlights of my playthrough, but weren't enough to make up for the game's many shortcomings otherwise. Ultimately, One Piece World Seeker serves as a rather mediocre adaptation of a property that has the potential to be so much more."

The Void Mirror DLC will sone available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC for $9.99 or as part of the One Piece World Seeker season pass.
