Player feedback for Rise of the Ronin is predominantly polarized, with many praising the engaging combat and rich historical setting while heavily criticizing its performance issues and inconsistent graphics. Overall, while some players find it enjoyable and worth playing, a significant number express frustration with its flaws, leading to mixed sentiments overall.
Team Ninja's open-world action RPG set in the turbulent final years of the Edo period, casting a nameless ronin into a Japan torn between shogunate loyalists and pro-Western reformers. Its combat carries the studio's Nioh pedigree, built on multiple weapon styles and counters, wrapped around a branching story where allegiances and named historical figures shift with the player's choices. Reception divides on execution rather than ambition. Steam and PlayStation reviews praise the fluid combat, grappling-hook traversal and historical texture, while the persistent criticisms are inconsistent visuals, performance problems, and filler side content. It suits players who prize a deep combat system and period drama over technical polish.
