Feb. 21, 2024Rise of the Ronin Shows How to Explore the Wide World
Upcoming Rise of the Ronin will have plenty of ways to explore the world including horseback, swimming, gliding to name a few which are showcased in the latest trailer.
In the first part of a series of showcases for Rise of the Ronin, the new trailer shows just how varied exploration will be in the open-world RPG. Want swim through rivers? Check. Want to glide effortlessly through villages? Check. Want to pick up cats for a cuddle, aww I mean check. As we get closer to the March release date for the game, Team Ninja are ramping up the promos showing what’s in store.
First up we have a quick look at exploration. Getting around in 19th century Japan doesn’t need to be boring. Simply leap from high areas using the fantasy bird-like glider called the Avicula. This is believed to be based on the early blueprint of the “oldest aeroplane” in Japan. You can even use a combo of grappling to overhead flying kites and whip out the glider mid-leap for a smooth transition.
For a more traditional way to get around opt for the horse. It will provide speed and a more scenic look at your surroundings. Of course, the grappling rope will help whisk you overhead through boat villages and up more rocky areas. This can lead to hidden chests and hopefully some amazing loot. You can also swim through rivers for a more covert approach or simply take a dip while admiring the spectacular fireworks.
The next part of the video takes a look at the differentlocationsincluding Edo (today known as Tokyo), Kyoto, and Yokohama. All very scenic visuals depicting life in during the Bakumatsu Japan era.
The latter part of the trailer takes a look at gameplay, including roaming natural areas, playing gliding mini games, archery, and sneak attacks. There’s even a glimpse of petting cats in your downtime. Onebossor mini-boss wields a clubweaponthe size of the protagonist, holding nothing back. You can dodge, roll and lunge at enemies incombat. It ends with what looks to be the ability to save a fire torches, which looks similar to previous games such asWo Long Fallen Dynasty‘sBattle FlagsorNioh 2‘sShrines. This could also be a fast travel point.
Previously Team Ninja has shown a few of the weapons players will get to use including the Fire Pipe, a a flamethrower-type weapon. They have also introduced the mainthree factionswhich will be holding influence during this era.
