Rise of the Ronin PC Port: Identical to the PS5 Version

After a full year, Team NINJA's ambitious action RPG, Rise of the Ronin, has finally made its way to PC. Despite some performance patches in the months following its initial release, no new DLC or additional content has been announced.

So, what does the PC version bring to the table for those who have already experienced the game on PS5?

Unoptimized PC Port Lacking New Content

Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin does not include any new content beyond what was available on the PS5. However, players can adjust the graphics settings to suit their preferences.

Reports indicate that the PC port remains unoptimized, similar to its PlayStation debut. This means players may need to spend time tweaking settings to achieve a smooth gaming experience.

Is the Rise of the Ronin PC Port Worth It?

Consider Waiting for a Sale, But Don't Expect New Content

Game8 rated the original PlayStation 5 version of Rise of the Ronin at 80/100, praising its stunning visuals, intricate combat system, and robust character creator. Since the PC version offers no new content, we suggest waiting for a sale if you're interested in this unique "samurai with guns" experience.

Given the lack of announcements from Team NINJA or Koei Tecmo regarding new DLC, it's reasonable to assume that no additional content will be forthcoming.
