- “The story is uninteresting with a lack of voice acting and feels like nothing but go there, beat up some people, then go here and read some dialogue with little ambience and sounds.”

They really need to fix their game; like damn, one of the worst running games I have ever tried.”

Overall, the game's replayability is mixed among users.

- “The world is dead, fighting is limited to 5 moves plus 5 executes with gear 4th boundman form that is weaker at the point of reaching it. Moreover, DLC adds 3 more playable characters with 6-8 chapters, while the main story is only 17 chapters and boss rush is only for Luffy.”
- “I really feel like I'm playing as Luffy. I wish other characters were playable, as well as online modes. This is the only game I wouldn't mind buying add-ons for if it came with the Straw Hat crew and missions where they are playable.”
