Pre-orders for Team Ninja’s Rise of the Ronin are now available digitally on the PlayStation Store and physically on PlayStation Direct and various retailers. The Standard Edition retails for $69.99, while the Digital Deluxe Edition costs $79.99.
Those pre-ordering either edition gain early access to four Combat Styles – Hayabusa-ryu for Katana, Hayabusa-ryu for Naginata, Nioh-ryu for Katana and Aisu Kage-ryu for Katana. They can also access the Iga Ninja’s Katana and Armor Set early (which means they’re still accessible in-game but at a later point).
If you pick up the Digital Deluxe Edition, you get two weapons – Iga Ninja’s Staff and Toyokuni Paired Swords – along with the Bando Warrior Armor and Japanese Formal Wear sets. It also includes a digital art book and soundtrack.
Rise of the Ronin launches on March 22nd, 2024, exclusively for PlayStation 5. In development for seven years, it’s an open-world action RPG set during the Bakumatsu in 19th-century Japan. Check out the latest gameplay here.

Frogwares has announced that it is the sole publisher of The Sinking City on all platforms. This comes after Frogwares’ lengthy legal battle with the game’s original PC publisher, Nacon.
2024 hasn't even started yet and it's already gearing up to be an exciting year for Pokemon TCG players. New stacking tins launching in the new year have been revealed, and you can also pre-order Paldean Fates products if you're lucky enough to find some. I thought the same would apply to the Paldea Adventure Chest shortly after its unveiling a couple of weeks ago, but heading toward the end of 2023, pre-orders are still available for the new set.
Sora's amiibo will be released on February 16, 2024, completing the Nintendo Switch's Super Smash Bros. Ultimate collection. 95 figures in total, the Kingdom Hearts protagonist the one character from the game players once believed would never get his own amiibo. Clearly, everyone is pretty excited Nintendo managed to make a Sora amiibo happen, and if you've been struggling to find a pre-order for the final figure, there are now more available at GameStop.
The first quarter of 2024 kicks off in style, with titles like Koei Tecmo’s Rise of the Ronin for PS5. Developed by Team Ninja of Nioh fame, it’s the studio’s most ambitious project to date, and thanks to a new preview by Game Informer, we get a better idea of its scale.
Rise of the Ronin is easily Team Ninja’s biggest game, with a massive open world to explore. Set in Japan during the Bakumatsu, players encounter historical figures like Sakamoto Ryoma and Yoshida Shoin, but your decisions influence the narrative direction.
