Kevin Costner could have phoned it in. Yellowstone, TV maven Taylor Sheridan’s neo-Western melodrama Paramount Network, was riding high in the ratings going into 2023, and Costner had a strong platform in the leading role. But during negotiations for season 6, the 69-year-old actor walked away. He had other dreams: specifically, directing a four-part Western epic titled Horizon. Costner has blamed creative differences with Paramount and Sheridan over reported flaring tensions on the Yellowstone set, but ultimately, as he said in a recent divorce proceeding, he left over scheduling conflicts — with his own movie.

The developer aims to continue and expand that legacy of satisfying melee mechanics in Rise of the Ronin.
There’s no shortage of reasons to be excited about Rise of the Ronin, but the fact that it’s going to be developer Team Ninja’s first stab at an open world experience has to be high on that list.
