Rise of the Ronin PC Port is No Different From PS5 Version

Team NINJA's latest ambitious action RPG, which blends elements of soulslike games, has finally made its way to PC after a year on the market. Despite receiving performance patches in the months following its initial release, there has been no mention of any DLC or additional content.

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

Unoptimized and Problematic PC Port With No New Content

Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin does not include any new content beyond what was available in the original release. However, it does offer the advantage of customizable graphics settings, allowing players to tailor the visual experience to their preferences.

On the downside, the game's PC port has been reported to be unoptimized, echoing the issues faced during its PlayStation launch. Players may need to spend time adjusting various settings to achieve a smooth gameplay experience.

Is Rise of the Ronin PC Worth It?

Wait for a Sale, But Don’t Cross Your Fingers For New Content

At Game8, we gave the original PlayStation 5 version of Rise of the Ronin an impressive score of 80/100, praising its breathtaking visuals, intricate combat system, and robust character creator. However, since the PC version mirrors the original release without any new additions, we suggest waiting for a sale if you're eager to experience this unique "samurai with guns" gameplay.

Moreover, it seems unlikely that Rise of the Ronin will receive any new content in the future, as neither Team NINJA nor Koei Tecmo have announced plans for additional DLC since the game's launch.
