We tip our hat to you, sir

Given that we thought One Piece: Pirate Warriors 2 was rather good, we're excited to hear that its sequel, unsurprisingly named One Piece: Pirate Warriors 3, will be heading West.

The announcement comes as something of a surprise, as the game isn't out in its native Japan until March. Nevertheless, publisher Bandai Namco has confirmed that it's making the trip overseas by posting the title's newest trailer on its American YouTube channel. Featuring a slew of new characters and the reappearance of an official story mode, the smash-'em-up will be hitting Western store shelves next summer. What's more, the release will be beating the snot out of the PS4, PS3, and the Vita.
