Rise of the Ronin Review: "An Immersive Open-World Historical Epic That Values Its Players' Time"
Rise of the Ronin is an immersive open-world title that does a lot of work to value the time of its players, making for a rewarding journey.
Team Ninja just knocked a new PS5 exclusive out of the park. Rise of the Ronin offers a busy and beautiful open-world samurai sandbox to explore while adding a few smart new ideas to the genre. Even in the shadow of Sucker Punch Productions’ beloved exclusive Ghost of Tsushima – a game to which it will inevitably draw quick comparison – Rise of the Ronin forges its own confident identity, built around a unique span of Japanese history which remains largely underexplored in gaming.
