Rise of the Ronin Download for PC Guide

Rise of the Ronin is a sprawling, open-world action-RPG released on Steam in March 2025 that immerses players in the turbulent final days of 19th-century Tokugawa Shogunate Japan. Developed by Team NINJA, the narrative follows a nameless, custom-created warrior—a Ronin—navigating a war-torn nation facing disease, political unrest, and the arrival of Western influence. Your choices dictate the historical path, forcing you to align with pro-shogunate, anti-shogunate, or Western factions across a multi-ending campaign.

For PC players, the game delivers Team NINJA’s signature, high-intensity melee combat, blending traditional samurai swordplay with period-accurate firearms, bows, and versatile combat stances. Traversal is incredibly fluid, utilizing a grappling rope to scale rooftops and a glider to soar across historically detailed recreations of Yokohama, Kyoto, and Edo.

Visually, the PC version brings massive technical upgrades over its original console release, offering native support for up to 8K resolutions, ultra-wide monitor compatibility, ray tracing, and unlocked 120 FPS performance. It fully integrates modern upscaling tech like NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS. To dive into this massive historical epic, your system will require 180 GB of available storage space on a mandatory solid-state drive (SSD).
