exclusive Rise of the Ronin is coming to PC It will have a range of exclusive 
features, including 8K support It's also cheaper than the PS5 version 

PlayStation 5 exclusive Rise of the Ronin is finally coming to PC. Developer 
Koei Tecmo has officially revealed that the game will arrive on Steam on 
March 11, 2025. 

Interestingly, the PC version will benefit from quite a few exclusive 
features in the graphics department. This includes support for 8K resolution, 
DirectX 12 Ultimate, ultra-wide and super ultra-wide displays, 120fps 
support, ray tracing, and 3D audio. This is on top of a menu UI that has been 
reworked for mouse controls, plus customizable keyboard and mouse inputs. 

In my experience, the original release of Rise of the Ronin often struggled 
to run on the base PS5 - with a few persistent stutters and a rather muddy 
looking picture at times. The developer has confirmed that the PC release 
will benefit from the addition of AMD Fidelity FX Super Resolution and Nvidia 
DLSS and Reflex support, which might prove a reliable way to smooth out those 
issues. 

The PC release is currently available for pre-order and comes in 
significantly cheaper than the PS5 version, which retailed for $69.99 / 69.99 
when it launched on March 22, 2024. It costs just $49.99 / 39.99, which in my 
eyes is a great price for such an expansive and unique open world game. 

Those who pre-order the PC version will receive the same pre-order bonus as 
PS5 players did, a pack of Ninja Gaiden inspired items. This includes the Iga 
Ninja's Katana and Iga Ninja Armor Set, plus early access to four in-game 
combat styles. Overall, not the most essential addition, but a neat little 
bonus for those eager to dive in on day one. 

In our Rise of the Ronin review, we praised its superb action combat and the 
sheer number of things to discover in its world. Although it suffers a bit 
from some samey mission design, its still well worth experiencing and the 
ability for more players to do so can only be a good thing. You might also

waiting for the Nintendo Switch 2, heres why Marvel Snap is finally back 
online in the US and all players are getting a huge number of free in-game 
items as compensation Xbox games are coming to Nintendo Switch 2, per Phil
