The release date of Monsters: side story from One Piece?

The release date information was shared on Twitter by the Animation Digital Network (ADN) online streaming service. Sunghoo Park, who has previous experience at MAPPA, will direct the film, with E&H Production serving as the production studio. The official announcement reads as follows:
