Rise of the Ronin PC Port: Identical to the PS5 Version

Team NINJA's latest action RPG, Rise of the Ronin, has now landed on PC after a year's wait. Despite several performance patches post-launch, there's been no word on any DLC or new content.

So, what's new for PC players who've already experienced the game on PS5?

Unoptimized PC Port Lacking New Content

Sadly, Rise of the Ronin on PC doesn't bring any fresh content beyond what was available at its original launch. On the bright side, PC gamers can tweak the game's graphics settings to their liking.

However, reports indicate that the PC port still suffers from optimization issues, much like its PS5 counterpart. Players might need to adjust multiple settings before diving into the action.

Is the Rise of the Ronin PC Port Worth It?

Hold Off Until a Sale, No New Content in Sight

At Game8, we gave the PlayStation 5 version of Rise of the Ronin an impressive 80/100, praising its breathtaking visuals, intricate combat, and robust character creation. But with the PC version offering nothing new, it's wise to wait for a discount if you're eager to play this unique "samurai with guns" game.

Moreover, it seems unlikely that Rise of the Ronin will see any new content, as neither Team NINJA nor Koei Tecmo have hinted at or announced any upcoming DLC.
