About Rise of the Ronin

Rise of the Rōnin is an upcoming action-role playing video game set in the late 19th century Edo during Bakumatsu.

Developed by Team Ninja and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment, the game immerses players in the Boshin War, a pivotal conflict between the Tokugawa Shogunate and anti-shogunate factions.

The narrative unfolds against the backdrop of the Edo period’s final years, marked by tension and dissent due to western influence forced upon Japan after the Sakoku period.

Development of ‘Rise of the Rōnin’ commenced in 2015, led by Team Ninja with essential support from PlayStation Studios’ XDev.

President Fumihiko Yasuda expressed the team’s commitment to portraying Japan’s darkest hours, spotlighting the often-overlooked Bakumatsu period.

Players can craft a personalized experience by creating custom characters, engaging in combat with an array of Boshin war weapons.

Adding depth to the gameplay, the dynamic storytelling allows players to make pivotal choices at key moments, influencing the narrative’s direction.

Scheduled for an exclusive PlayStation 5 release on March 22, 2024, ‘Rise of the Rōnin’ promises a unique blend of historical accuracy and personalized storytelling, making it a highly anticipated venture into historical fiction.”
