"Grand Piece Online Update: Balance Changes and New Turtleback Cave Island Revealed"

Author:Kristen Update:Apr 19,2025

The long-running anime-inspired pirate adventure, Grand Piece Online, is starting February with a bang, launching a mini update that brings fresh content and balance tweaks to the Roblox platform. Developer Grand Quest Games has rolled out patch notes for this smaller update, which, although light on new additions, packs a punch with the introduction of Turtleback Cave island, the Kira fruit, and a slew of balance adjustments to keep the gameplay smooth and enjoyable.

Grand Piece Online February mini update adds new island, fruit, and balance changes.

Located in the Second Sea, north of Rose Kingdom, Turtleback Cave is the new hotspot for adventurers. Here, players can challenge the new boss, Juzo the Diamondback, and earn rewards like the Turtleback Armor and Turtleback Helmet. There's also a thrilling 5% chance to score the Kira fruit and a slim chance to nab a Mythical Fruit Chest. Juzo respawns every 15 minutes, giving players multiple opportunities to test their mettle. The update also includes a new player list feature, showcasing crew and player names, and introduces several crew shop enhancements, such as five new items, increased shop slots from four to eight, a higher mythical chance, and the ability to purchase current and past Battle Pass outfits.

On the balance front, Grand Piece Online has seen significant adjustments. The Arena Storm has been replaced with a new countdown system where winners are determined based on damage dealt and remaining stocks, adding a strategic layer to the competition. Specific tweaks have been made to Tori, Pteranodon, Buddha, Venom, Yuki, Gold, Zushi, and more, aiming to level the playing field and enhance the overall gaming experience.

Since its launch in 2018, Grand Piece Online continues to evolve, with this mini update signaling Grand Quest Games' commitment to keeping the game fresh and engaging as it sails into 2025. The previous update on January 17 brought Water and Travel changes, and while there's no confirmed date for the next major update, fans can look forward to more exciting developments soon.
