PS5 Exclusive RISE OF THE RONIN Could Be The Next Hallmark Samurai Game
This week held many big announcements. Koei Tecmo played host to several of these, showcasing more Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. However, arguably its biggest announcement was also its most unexpected – Rise of the Ronin, an open-ended action RPG that first began seven years ago.
Presented during PlayStation's long-awaited State of Play, it was competing against the likes of Tekken 8, God of War Ragnarok and another samurai-focused title, Like a Dragon: Ishin!, for attention. Nevertheless, it immediately made an impact because of its developer, Team Ninja. Of course, announcing it as a PlayStation 5 exclusive for release in 2024, with Sony not only publishing the title but supporting it for years, also doesn't hurt when it comes to generating headlines.
