According to YouTuber
Skill Up, who has early access to the upcoming
Rise of the Ronin, the game struggles to maintain its target frame rate of 60 fps in its Performance mode, dipping into the 40s. Those who will play the game on VRR displays will get a relatively smoother experience, though given the PS5’s minimum VRR threshold being at 48 Hz, dips in frame rate below this value will remain an issue. It is also mentioned that cutscenes tend to exhibit judder, likely due to frame pacing issues.
Hope is not lost, however, as Rise of the Ronin is set to receive a series of
performance patches before its release on March 22, 2024, as per the embargo document. However, its hard to say what kind of an improvement can be expected, and only time will tell whether the game’s performance will see a noteworthy improvement.
