Rise of the Ronin's PC Port: A PS5 Rehash?

Team NINJA's ambitious action RPG, Rise of the Ronin, finally makes its PC debut a year after its console release. Despite post-launch performance patches, no DLC or additional content has been announced. So, what's in it for PC players who've already experienced the game?

An Unoptimized Port, Lacking New Content

Unfortunately, the PC version of Rise of the Ronin offers no new content. While adjustable graphics settings provide some customization, reports suggest optimization issues persist from the PlayStation release, requiring significant tweaking for optimal gameplay.

Is the PC Version Worth It?

Wait for a Sale: No New Content on the Horizon

Game8 awarded the original PS5 version an 80/100, praising its visuals, combat, and character creator. However, the PC port's identical content makes waiting for a sale advisable, unless you're craving a "samurai with guns" experience. Given the lack of announcements from Team NINJA or Koei Tecmo, further content seems unlikely.
