About This Item

Japan, 1863. After three centuries of the Tokugawa Shogunate’s oppressive rule, the Black Ships of the West descend upon the nation’s borders and the country falls into a state of turmoil. Amidst the chaos of war, disease and political unrest, a nameless warrior forges their own path, holding the very fate of Japan in their hands. Shape a dynamic story. As a masterless warrior – a Ronin, your destiny is your own. See the story unfold in different ways depending on the choices you make and the characters you ally with along the way. Face critical mission decisions – like whether to assassinate or protect key figures, and shape the course of history through a rich multi-choice system. Engage in deep accessible combat. From the veteran developers of Nioh and Ninja Gaiden – Rise of the Ronin offers deeply engaging yet accessible combat, with layers of complexity suitable for any playstyle. Face your foes with a selection of close-quarters weaponry or engage from afar with authentic period firearms. Explore a historically-inspired world. The “Bakumatsu” period heralds the end of the Shogunate as a new era begins and East and West collide. Experience this cultural revolution across an open world where you’ll meet the key figures who’ll shape the course of history, and the ordinary citizens seeking a guiding light in the darkness.

Q: why pick up is not available for this item?

A: I actually was able to order online and get mine from and instore location. So i actually did pick this game title up in person. It may not be available now due to the game being good and its sold out now.

Q: Can anyone please answer this? The same question has already been asked and received one of the worst answers I have seen in the past millennium. Does it come with a pre-order bonus??

A: No, it does not!! And i wish all games came with this. If you take the time to order something so you have and hassle-free experience when arriving to pick up your item i believe you should be rewarded a small discount on next purchase. It makes things for the customers in store allows them to have more time with the workers or for questions. Especially when you're only asking for and worker to get you and game. If you already order it then it will be up front and waiting on you and no one has to stop helping someone to get your game title.

Q: Is best buy giving out the pre-order bonus?

A: n/a the game was already out upon my order. Now if you mean bonus for ordering online and coming to pick up in store. No, they didn't offer any bonus for that, but less of and hassle in store for getting my game. Just went over to the check out line and showed my receipt for the order. But no actual tangible bonus or anything toward my next purchase/discounts.
