Ronin is stylish a turn-based action platformer following the exploits of a vengeful heroine determined to strike down five prominent figures of a powerful corporation.

Laying out an unrelenting path of retribution, Ronin follows the exploits of a vengeful heroine determined to strike down five prominent figures of a powerful corporation. Plot your strikes via cunning use of razor wire or your deathly katana, or avoid combat via a holographic replicator and grappling hook until you locate your most advantageous position for an all-out assault.

Ronin takes you through more than 15 complex missions as you stalk your targets with silent steps and soaring leaps - but be careful, your enemies are carefully guarded and part of a secret, destructive conglomerate. Taking them out will be no easy task.

As the game enters its final phase of development, Ronin is now available on Steam Early Access with a 10% discount off the standard ($12.99 / £9.99 / € 12.99 price.

During this four-week stretch in Early Access, developer Tomasz Waclawek and the community will work to finely tune the controls, difficulty curve, and overall gameplay of the otherwise complete game.

"Ronin is a game of precision and timing so our team has worked with beta testers, other developers, and third-party testing studios to really test and tweak the near final game,” said developer Tomasz Waclawek. “Our goal is to extend this type of testing and iteration to a much larger audience to hopefully perfect RONIN and Steam Early Access is the perfect method and forum for honest feedback.," says developer Tomasz Waclawek.

The Ronin Digital Special Edition ($19.99 / £14.99 / € 19.99 price) is also available and includes the game, an exclusive full-color digital comic, and the full original soundtrack in both MP3 and FLAC formats.

Key Features:

  • Turn-Based Action: Carefully plot your movements to setup the perfect strike before retreating back into the shadows or boldly confronting your opposition head-on with your katana.
  • Decisive Strikes: Dispatch all that oppose you with your lethal blade and razor wire or avoid their attacks with a holographic replicator and grappling hook to find a more advantageous position.
  • Path to Vengeance: Battle through over fifteen complex missions as you stalk and cut down five closely guarded figures within a secretive conglomerate.
