Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart will be officially released on PS5 on June 11, 2021. Revealed on PlayStation.Blog, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a new adventure exclusive to PS5.“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,” says the official description. “As they try to get together, they will find a new fighter from the Lombax resistance, explore new and familiar locations (but with new dimensional twists!) And wield a new arsenal of weapons from another world.”

Insomniac Games notes that this is a great place to start for the Ratchet & Clank franchise, as it will be an “independent story”, but it will reward fans of the series that started in 2002 on the PS2 with “deeper layers of connection to previous games. “

Insomniac also unveiled the art of the Ratchet & Clank box: Rift Apart, key art, pre-order bonuses and the deluxe digital edition, which you can see below.

Participating retailers in the U.S. and Canada will also have a special physical launch edition of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, which will sell for $ 69.99 USD / $ 89.99 CAD. This will include a code for the pre-order bonuses mentioned above.Insomniac also joked that, although he is not ready to reveal the name of the new playable Lombax that had been mentioned earlier, he mentions that we must “hang on” and that we will be “feeling good soon”.

He promised that “Players will travel seamlessly through different dimensions in the middle of the game, thanks to the PS5’s ultra-high speed SSD. Wireless control DualSense brings combat to life, with tactile feedback and adaptive triggers adding powerful sensations that increase immersion in combat. “
