Being able to choose how the narrative plays out is one of the most attractive features of RPGs; to command your characters’ destinies is a heady experience. However, not all RPGs are made equal, meaning sometimes our expectations are far greater than what’s delivered.

However, it’s the way we engage with characters that most has us intrigued about thisPStitle, with the devs promising us that we won’t be penalised for how we play our version of a Rōnin. “Who you choose to develop a relationship with impacts how the story unfolds,” Team Ninja’s director Fumihiko Yasudaexplains. “However, there are no disadvantages to bonding with a character at the expense of another.

We’re being given a lot of information that only continues to increase our hype levels, yet we suspect thatRise of the Rōninwon’t be able to beat the splendour and awe-inspiring story ofGhost of Tsushima, a game still considered thebest looking PS5 release.
So many gamers are “looking forward” to this upcoming RPG, and fortunately for them, the countdown to release won’t be an arduous affair; launch is set for 22 March. Considering we’re now in February, that date will come round before we know it.
