Reading between the lines a little with this point, but as per Rise of the Ronin’s official press release, the game is touted as a PS5 console exclusive – the operative word here being console. Releasing the game as a PlayStation 5 exclusive may just scupper Rise of the Ronin’s sales potential, but with the game releasing some time in 2024 there’s plenty of time for Sony and Koei Tecmo’s marketing departments to whet the appetites of any gamers currently on the fence.

Team Ninja aren’t coy on their lofty ambitions for Rise of the Ronin, openly stating they’re targeting sales of 5 million units. Perhaps owing to Team Ninja’s increasingly strong working relationship with Sony, Rise of the Ronin is currently slated as PlayStation 5 exclusive. Evidently, the timescale already undertaken indicates this project is the “most ambitious and challenging” of all Team Ninja’s undertakings to date, representing – in Yasuda’s words – the next big step in the studio’s history. In fact, Team Ninja Director and President Fumihiko Yasuda confirms it’s been 7 years since the project began. Much like the boundless spirit of the master-less Ronin, development of Rise of the Ronin has progressed slowly and freely.

As a studio with pedigree, richly experienced in crafting samurai and ninja action games, and whose relationship with Sony continues to grow stronger, all the foundations are laid for Rise of the Ronin to be a highpoint for the studio. Now, in addition to the already announced Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, a bygone Chinese fable with a mythological twist, Team Ninja are turning their attention onto a historically inspired Japan with Rise of the Ronin. It’s a long way off release yet, but worth marking your calendars for.Īs a studio most famous for the Ninja Gaiden hack ‘n slash series and Dead or Alive beat ‘em ups, Team Ninja trod new ground with 2017’s action RPG Nioh and its 2020 sequel. Rise of the Ronin visually looks fantastic, it offers an intriguing narrative premise, with combat that fuses tradition with modernity. One of the most notable reveals during Sony PlayStation’s most recent State of Play must be this incoming samurai odyssey from Team Ninja.
