Rise of the Ronin PC Port: Same as PS5?

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 news of DLC or additional content. So, what do PC players get that PS5 owners don't?

Unoptimized PC Port, No New Content

Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin offers no additional content compared to its original release. The main advantage is the ability to customize graphics settings to suit your hardware. However, reports suggest optimization issues persist, mirroring the PS5 launch experience. Players may need to adjust numerous settings to achieve optimal performance.

Is Rise of the Ronin PC Worth It?

Wait for a Sale; No New Content Expected

Game8 awarded the PS5 version an 80/100, praising its visuals, combat, and character creator. However, with the PC version offering no new content, we recommend waiting for a sale unless you’re craving a samurai-with-guns experience. Given the lack of announcements from Team NINJA or Koei Tecmo, further DLC seems unlikely.
