PS5 Rise of the Ronin

Japan, 1863.

After three centuries of tyranny by the Tokugawa Shogunate, the Black Ships of the West appear on the borders of the country, which then sinks into chaos. Surrounded by war, plague and political unrest, a nameless warrior chooses his own path and holds the fate of Japan in his hands.

Drive a dynamic story

As a masterless samurai - a ronin - only you determine your fate. The story will unfold before your eyes differently depending on your choices and the characters you team up with. In missions, you are often faced with a difficult choice thanks to a complex decision-making system - for example, whether you want to murder or protect important characters.

Engage in complex but accessible combat

The experienced development team at Nioh and Ninja Gaiden offers players an exciting, yet accessible combat system in Rise of the Ronin with different levels of complexity, so there is something for every play style. Take on your opponents with a selection of melee weapons or take them down from a distance with authentic historical firearms.

Explore a historical world

The Bakumatsu period marks the end of the shogunate, as East meets West and a new era begins. Experience this cultural revolution in an open world and encounter important figures who influence history as well as ordinary people who are just looking for a light in the darkness.
