One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum, Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden update to allow for cross-play

Bandai Namco is updating One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum and Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butoden in a rather interesting way. The two games, both of which are 2D fighters created by Arc System Works, will allow for cross-play before the end of this year. Players will be able to battle against each other locally or online, according to the One Piece: Great Pirate Colosseum website.

An update is planned for release to enable the functionality in early November. It will be free to all players.
