Game developer Bandai Namco is planning to release the "One Piece: Burning Blood" video game on April 21 next year. The company said that the game will be rolled out exclusively for both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita in Japan. In fact, the company will release two editions of the game, namely, the regular and the special Anison Sound edition, a report from Design & Trend said on Friday.
