Don’t deny yourselves the chance to watch theRise of the Rōnintrailer to soak up the atmosphere of this stunning title
In abehind the scenes videoforRise of the Rōnin,Yasuda talks about Shōin Yoshida’s impact on Japan and his legacy.
We’re not well versed in this area of history, however, the crux of the matter is that while Yoshida is highly regarded in Japan, he still strikes a controversial figure to many Koreans. Thus, commenting on him being important in the game has, potentially, upset the apple cart, so to speak.

Many Korean gamers have already spoken out about Yoshida’s inclusion inRise of the Rōnin, meaning the game’s exclusion from Korea isn’t all that surprising. However, it ensures a large portion of gamers will be alienated and unable to play arguably one of the biggest PS launches this year.
Having seen more of the gameplay during PlayStation’s January State of Play, we’re excited to see thisGhost of Tsushima-esque title blow us away with its stunning graphics and historically rich story. We’re just sad that so many will be denied the chance to experience it first hand.
Rise of the Rōninwill release on 22 March on PlayStation, so now is the time to treat yourself to a new console if you haven’t already.
