Rise of the Ronin Performance Issues and Slow Motion Gameplay Receive Temporary Fix

by Salal Awan

Rise of the Ronin players on PC have encountered various performance-related issues since the game’s launch, prompting Team Ninja to acknowledge the problems and offer temporary solutions. The developer addressed these concerns in a statement posted on the official Steam forums, confirming that they are actively working on a patch to improve stability and performance.

According to Team Ninja, players running the game on the “Ultra” preset may experience significant frame rate drops, slow performance, and rendering issues, regardless of their PC specifications. To mitigate these issues, they recommend lowering the preset to “High” or “Standard” for better stability. Another issue affects gameplay speed, causing the game to run in slow motion when the “FPS Limit” is set to 120. As a temporary fix, the developers advise setting the FPS limit to 60.

While a permanent solution is in development, Team Ninja assured players that a patch is being prepared and will be released soon. They apologized for the inconvenience and thanked the community for their patience as they work toward resolving these problems.

Rise of the Ronin is an action role-playing game developed by Team Ninja and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for PlayStation 5, with Koei Tecmo handling the PC release. The game takes players to 19th-century Japan, allowing them to experience an open-world adventure in a historically rich setting. It marks the third collaboration between Sony and Koei Tecmo, following the Nioh series.

The PC version of Rise of the Ronin was released on March 11, 2025. It has received mixed reviews from players, primarily due to performance issues. For more information about the PC version, you can read our review.
