Rise Of The Ronin Will Let You Pet Cats

Rise of the Ronin is an upcoming JRPG by iconic developer Team Ninja, which is known for the likes of the Ninja Gaiden, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, and Nioh franchises. In recent times, a new trailer has come out for the title, focusing on the incredibly detailed world, unique traversal mechanics, and what appears to be a personal favorite, petting adorable cats and picking them up as you do that. 

In the latter part of the trailer, some more gameplay footage is shown off as well, with the protagonist taking on different types of enemies, including a heavy-class foe that employs a seemingly unblockable grabbing move that you will have to get out of the way of. Other elements of gameplay, such as stealth takedowns, ranged combat, and special attacks with guns have been highlighted as well. 

Explore a historically inspired world. Witness beautiful landscapes from late 19th century Bakumatsu Japan with Edo (Tokyo), Kyoto and Yokohama.Available March 22, 2024 only on PS5! Pre-order now for in-game bonuses,” reads the trailer’s description. 

On a side note, Rise of the Ronin will not be released in South Korea, PlayStation confirmed earlier; if you’re somewhere in that region, you’ll be needing to sit this one out. There are going to be no physical or digital copies of the action-adventure available, and despite the recent influx of news that correlated this occurrence with the game director’s controversial remarks, Sony affirmed this decision is from way before.
