So far we only knew that the artworks will be based on original drawings by Eiichiro Oda. Now Bandai Namco has spread a guide for the game that gives us an insight into the mechanics. (via screen edge)

these are the most important game mechanics of the One Piece card game

Each deck in One Piece has a commander who has its own field on the field. You can call this at any time as long as you can afford it. If this card is defeated, it can be revived at any time, but the costs for this increase every time.

The commander also determines all cards that may be used in a deck. Monkey D. Ruffy, for example, has the color red - accordingly only cards of this color can be used. That sounds very restrictive at first, but we have to wait and see how this mechanics are in practice. The following commanders are available at the start:

• Monkey D. Ruffy
• Eustass Kid
• Sir Crocodile
• Kaido

An extremely interesting one Piece-RPG also has Bandai Namco in the Macht:

Pokémon meets Magic: The commander system is reminiscent of Magic the Gathering, but at One Piece is linked to a mechanics from the Pokémon card game: the price cards. Every time your commander is damaged, you can pull a so -called "life card" - the number depends on the respective commander. If the life cards go out, you lose the game.

The so-called "Don !!-cards" act as an energy resource, so almost as mana. With each round you pull two pieces that you can use to play out other cards. In addition, you can put them on another card to unlock special maneuvers.

The Trading Card Game starts with these cards

You have the choice between four starter decks: In addition to the straw hat pirates, you can also hit the side of the "Worst Generation", the "Seven Warlords of the Sea" or the "Animal Kingdom Pirates". There will also be a bonus deck with characters from the films.

You can of course get additional characters and other cards for your deck via booster packs, each contain 12 cards. The first row of packs runs under the name "Romance Dawn", an allusion to the working title of the manga. Suitable protective covers are also in the works.
