Despite some critical issues, as also highlighted in our review of Rise of the Ronin , Team Ninja 's open world Action/RPG for PS5 seems to be taking away its great satisfactions on a commercial level, recording sales that apparently exceed the company's expectations Koei Tecmo itself .
Fumihiko Yasuda , director of Rise of the Ronin , said this during an interview, revealing that the popular adventure set in Feudal Japan is " currently the best-selling Koei Tecmo game so far ", a sign of how the public continues to show a strong interest in the game even three months after its debut on PS5, which took place last March 22nd.
However, Yasuda does not specify how much Team Ninja's latest effort has sold so far, considering that the Japanese company has not yet released precise numbers on the commercial results achieved at a global level. However, we know with certainty that Rise of the Ronin has already sold more than the Nioh series as emerged from Koei Tecmo's latest financial report, all the more reason that the company is satisfied with the market performances recorded so far.
Published on PS5 directly by Sony , Rise of the Ronin proved to be one of the most interesting PS5 exclusives of 2024 despite some defects that did not allow it to take flight towards the shores of excellence. On Metacritic it has an average of 76, which however rises up to 87 on the User Score: the public was therefore very satisfied with the game and consequently its success is not a surprise.
