Rising of the Ronin is the next game from the talented Team Ninja group. The game is set in Japan and has a lot of RPG and action features. Here’s everything you need to know about it, from when it comes out to all the ads.
After a good start with the Nioh series, which was based on Souls, Team Ninja is now working on a new project called Rise of the Ronin. The game takes place during the Boshin War, and players take control of the title Ronin, a warrior who has no master and is traveling across Japan.
As the game goes on, players will be able to pretty much live the life of a Ronin by exploring an open world and fighting enemy NPCs. Like in the Way of the Samurai games, the player can make decisions that change the story, the ending, and the lives of the characters.
The game was first shown off at the Sony State of Play event on September 13, 2022. On January 31, 2024, there was a second State of Play event with a lot more information. That’s all you need to know about Rise of the Ronin, from how to fight to the story and everything else.

PlayStation says that Rise of the Ronin is a “combat-focused open-world action RPG that takes place in Japan at a time of great change.” The game is set in 1863 Japan. There will be no more Edo Periods for 300 years.
This is the end of the “Bakumatsu” period. In the late 1800s, Japan is going through the worst of times because of its cruel masters and deadly diseases. The West is also having an effect, and the civil war between the Tokugawa Shogunate and the Anti-Shogunate groups is still going strong.
Your Ronin will be able to dash around the map, ride a horse to get to land faster or use a set of fake wings to glide through the skies. The game is supposed to give players a freeing movement experience.
Team Ninja is great at game situations that involve a lot of fighting, and Rise of the Ronin has tough fights against enemy fighters where you can use a variety of tools.

After that, at The Game Awards 2023, a second video dropped, giving us a better look at the game’s gameplay and confirming when it would be out.
Team Ninja most recently gave fans an outline of the game during the State of Play event on January 31, 2024. The almost four-minute in-depth look gave us the best look at the game so far.
Rise of the Ronin Platforms
Team Ninja and Sony have made it very clear that Rise of the Ronin will only be available on the PS5 for the time being.
The word “console” is interesting, though, because it means Sony will be willing to bring the game to PC, which they have done with other PlayStation games.
