One Piece: Pirate Warriors is a recently announced video game being released for the Sony PlayStation 3. Namco Bandai and Tecmo Koei are teaming up to create the game. Omega Force, a subsidiary of Tecmo Koei, is developing it. The game will take place from the East Blue Saga until the New World Saga. It is said to be released in Japan on March 1, 2012.

The title is being made with the hopes of creating the "ultimate game", as developers claim that it personifies the "comrades" (仲間, nakama) and Warriors themes in a grand adventure. This game is in honor of One Piece's 15th anniversary, starting back in 1997.

The game is scheduled to be release on March 1, 2012 in Japan. In the early December issue of Weekly Shōnen Jump, it announced that Pirate Warriors will be bundled in Japan with the Treasure Box, a collector's edition which includes the game's soundtrack, 15 collectible pins, a serial code to download nine custom themes featuring individual members of the Straw Hat Pirates, and a book featuring character and CG-rendered artwork and environments from the game's production. Namco Bandai and Tecmo Koei also confirmed that the game will be bundled with a gold PlayStation 3 with a print of Luffy and the Pirate Warriors logo on it. Sony Computer Entertainment president Hiroshi Kawano revealed that the PlayStation 3 was made as a pressing process.
