Rise of the Ronin's PC Port: A PS5 Rehash?
Team NINJA's ambitious action RPG, Rise of the Ronin, finally makes its PC debut after a year-long wait. While post-launch performance patches have addressed some issues, there's been no word on DLC or additional content. So, what's in it for PC players who've already conquered the PS5 version?
An Unoptimized Port, Lacking New Content
Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin offers no new content beyond its original PS5 release. While adjustable graphics settings are a welcome addition, reports indicate optimization issues persist, mirroring the PS5 launch experience. Players may need to extensively tweak settings to achieve a playable experience.
Is the PC Version Worth It?
Wait for a Sale; New Content Unlikely
Game8 awarded the original PS5 version an 80/100, praising its visuals, combat, and character creator. However, given the PC version's lack of new content, we recommend waiting for a sale unless you're craving a samurai-with-guns experience. Furthermore, with no announcements from Team NINJA or Koei Tecmo regarding DLC, future content additions seem unlikely.
