Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart: Everything We Know

Ratchet & Clank is one of Sony’s longest-running series, blending classic 3D platforming with an array of wild and wacky weaponry.

But this Ratchet is also serving as a nice showpiece for the PS5, relying on a snappy dimension-hopping mechanic made possible by the new hardware’s faster-loading SSD.

In the reveal trailer shown off in June 2020, we saw a brief look at the logo for the next game, along with a voiceover from Kratos saying the words, “you must prepare yourself.”
