Rise of the Ronin PC Performance and Lack of New Content Disappoints

Team NINJA's latest ambitious action RPG, reminiscent of soulslike games, has finally been released on PC a year after its initial launch. Despite performance patches released in the months following its debut, there has been no news about any DLC or additional content.

So, for those who have already experienced the game on its initial release last year, does the PC version offer anything new?

Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin does not include any new content beyond what was available in the original release. However, it does allow players to adjust graphics settings to suit their preferences.

Moreover, reports indicate that the game's optimization remains an issue, similar to its initial PlayStation release. Players may need to spend time tweaking various settings before enjoying a smooth gameplay experience.

Wait for a Sale, But Don’t Expect New Content

At Game8, we gave the original PlayStation 5 version an impressive 80/100, praising its stunning visuals, intricate combat system, and robust character creator. However, since the PC version doesn't differ from the original release, we recommend waiting for a sale if you're keen on playing a "samurai with guns" game.

It's also worth noting that there seems to be no new content on the horizon for Rise of the Ronin, as neither Team NINJA nor Koei Tecmo have announced any plans for additional DLC since the game's launch.
