"As a title, Rise of the Ronin features a historical setting quintessential to Koei Tecmo, while brimming with Team Ninja’s own brand of action and combat," Team Ninja president Fumihiko Yasuda writes on the PlayStation Blog. "Throughout creating our biggest game to date, we have been working alongside the team at SIE to create an experience that allows players to fully embody a Roninduring the closing days of the Tokugawa Shogunate."

Rise of the Ronin takes place near the end of the 19th century, then, with key historical figureheads like Ryoma Sakamoto and Shoin Yoshida dragging Japan towards a more modern culture.
