Play One Piece Gigant Battle 2 - Shin Sekai (j) Online

One Piece Gigant Battle 2 came out for the Nintendo DS in 2011, a time when the handheld was full of anime fighting games. Bandai Namco Entertainment published it, and it was a Japan only release. This was a sequel that built directly on the first game, offering more characters and stages from the sprawling One Piece story. It felt like a natural part of the DS library, sitting alongside other portable brawlers from that era.

You control a team of One Piece characters, switching between them on the fly to fight across 2D battlefields. The main goal is to knock your opponents off the screen, which you do by landing combos and special moves. Two key mechanics define the action: you can call in support characters for assists, and you can activate a Gigant mode to temporarily power up and unleash massive attacks. The pacing is fast and chaotic, with up to four players able to fight at once, and the difficulty can spike sharply during boss encounters. It feels like a frantic, portable party brawl where managing your team and timing your big moves is everything.
