Koei Tecmo Rise of the Ronin (PS5) (1000042888)

Shape your destiny in this epic new samurai action adventure.

Embark on an epic journey through war-torn 19th-century Japan in this combat-focused open-world action RPG from Team NINJA, the veteran studio behind Nioh and NINJA GAIDE.

Japan, in 1863. After three centuries of oppressive rule by the Tokugawa shogunate, the black ships of the West approach Japan's shores and the country falls into chaos. Amidst the chaos of war, disease and political unrest, a nameless warrior forges his own path and holds the fate of all of Japan in his hands. You are a homeless samurai – a ronin – and your destiny is yours. See the story unfold in different ways depending on the choices you make and the characters you team up with along the way. Make critical decisions in missions, such as whether to assassinate or protect important figures, and shape the course of history through a comprehensive multiple-choice system.

The Bakumatsu era precedes the end of the shogunate as a new era begins as east and west collide. Experience this cultural revolution in an open world and meet important figures who shape the course of history, as well as ordinary citizens who seek a guiding light in the midst of darkness. From the veteran developer behind Nioh and NINJA GAIDEN, Rise of the Ronin offers highly engaging yet easy-to-learn combat with a layered diversity that suits all playstyles. Engage your enemies with a selection of melee weapons or attack from a distance with authentic period firearms.
