This morning, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Creative Director Marcus Smith confirmed in a PlayStation blog post that the next installment in Sony’s upcoming third-person shooter platformer launches worldwide on June 11th for PlayStation 5. A brief pre-order trailer accompanied this announcement and has been embedded above for you all to check out. Below is a brief look at the box art and a description of the game as described by Marcus.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a brand-new full-length adventure. When the evil Dr. Nefarious uses a device that can access alternate dimensions to find a galaxy where he always wins, Ratchet and Clank are separated. As they try to reunite, they will meet a new Lombax resistance fighter, explore new and familiar locales (but with new dimensional twists!), and wield a whole new arsenal of out of this world weapons.
If you’ve never played a Ratchet & Clank game before, this is an excellent one to start with as the adventure is a stand-alone storyline, but longtime fans of the series will find deeper layers of connection to previous games.
Here are some quick details on both the digital and deluxe editions of the game available for pre-order right now.
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Digital Edition is $69.99 and includes the following:
- Digital Standard Edition
- Carbonox Armor
- Pixelizer Weapon
Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Digital Deluxe Edition is $79.99 and includes the following:
