Rise of the Ronin is an action-adventure game set in Japan during the Bakumatsu period of 1863. Developed for the PlayStation 5 platform by the creators of Nioh and Ninja Gaiden, it plunges players into a world of political turmoil and warfare following the arrival of Western ships, marking the decline of the Tokugawa Shogunate.
Players take on the role of a Ronin, a masterless warrior, navigating through a dynamic storyline shaped by their choices and alliances. Critical decisions, such as whether to assassinate or protect key figures, determine the unfolding of history through a multi-choice system.
Combat is a central aspect, offering deep engagement with various playstyles, whether engaging in close-quarters combat with traditional weaponry or utilizing period firearms from a distance.
The game features an open-world environment inspired by 19th-century Japan, allowing players to encounter influential historical figures and ordinary citizens amidst the cultural revolution.
Utilizing the capabilities of the PlayStation 5 console, players can immerse themselves in the experience with features like haptic feedback through the DualSense controller, adaptive triggers for weapon interactions, 3D spatial audio, and lightning-fast load times.
Rise of the Ronin was released on March 22, 2024, exclusively for the PlayStation 5, published by Sony Interactive Entertainment.
