    One of the best Ratchet and Clank games I ever played, great story, astonishing visuals. A real next gen experience.

    I've played most of the games of this franchise. I would say that my favorite would be the original trilogy, with Up Your Arsenal being my favorite. It's been a long time since we've had a real entry, I'm not counting the 2016 one as that was just not good.

I would say that my favorite would be the original trilogy, with Up Your Arsenal being my favorite. It's been a long time since we've had a real entry, I'm not counting the 2016 one as that was just not good.

    Now the biggest thing that I was impressed was how quickly from you select the game to actually getting into the game, it's only like 20seconds or less. That's impressive. But shouldn't the actual gameplay be the most impressive thing? Rift Apart is good, but there's a lot of things that don't deserve this to be a 10/10. I'll go over the pros first, then the cons.
    Pros:
    Fast load times and seamless transitions between travel to planets and cutscenes. Definitely the best out of the franchise in this regard.
    Graphics are top notch and the colors just pop, I played on the setting that the game recommends, which focuses on visual, and locks fps to 30, but I didn't really notice FPS issues. Recommend fidelity setting first then go to performance rt if you are wanting to do a second playthrough
    The new characters Rivet and Kit are generally well-written, designed well, and likable. This is important since they get a lot of screen time, and Rivet is in the game more than Ratchet from what it felt like when playing the game. Definitely could see a rivet and kit spinoff
    Combat is great, it's expected from this franchise
    Villains are entertaining and tough, dealing with TWO nefariouses is a nice twist.

    Cons
    Ran into quite a few glitches, funny enough even one with the character Glitch haha. Had to close the game and reload. Some with the weapon wheel not working, some with just running into something like a wall made me drop to zero health. Nothing too major, but noticeable enough and some users have had gamebreaking glitches.
    Weapons are not unique enough. I wasn't really impressed and didn't feel like they pushed the PS5 to the limit. There could of been some melee weapons to buy, or something like you summon hazards using rifts that are scattered around.
    Mini boss fights.... this is my biggest issue with the game. It's the same repetitive enemies. same nerfarious enforcer that you fight several times, or a pirate version that you fight several times. it's lazy. overall enemy variety isn't that good. it's either nefarious minions, goons minions, or robot pirates....
    Arena challenges are not as good compared to other entries in this franchise. They could of done a lot more with this.
    Ratchet and Rivet pretty much work exactly the same... I personally was hoping for some more variety, like for example rivet only gets certain weapons for her! That would of made it even more fun, instead it just feels like a ratchet clone.

    Other Thoughts

    The gameplay isn't too bad, i got over 10hrs of gameplay, didn't 100% the game. Not all games need to be 100hrs length. Is it worth full price? If you're a huge fan like me then yes, but if not I would recommend waiting for a sale then due to gameplay length. I do think this is a good entry and there's a lot of promise for the future for this franchise. However, I do want the developers to try to take more risks or be even more creative.

    Overall, it's a 8/10 for me.    … Expand

There’s a great opening full of action. The ending is also good & full of action. It definitely will lead to a sequel. But the middle part gets a bit repetitive. I started dreading going to the different planets because it was always the same activity. The enemies are not varied- especially mini-bosses which are exactly the same every time. I’m not the biggest fan of the Clank puzzles- although they were something different. They could’ve had more creative weapons. I did have fun most of the game, and I can’t say I hated it. It didn’t feel as much tailored for just kids as the 2016 game. Only took me about 10 hours to complete- without going for Platinum. Overall I think it’s a good game- and a great showcase for the PS5. I’d recommend it if you can get it on a good sale.… Expand

    I really loved this game, but it left me wanting more. This is the kind of game i would have loved to rent for a weekend, but unfortunately there are no rental stores left where I live. I might play through one more time in fidelity mode but after that i think I'll be done. Without multi-player this game is just too short to deserve anything over a 8 when it has a $70 price tag.

    Since A Crack in Time (one of the series’ best imo), Ratchet & Clank has had a small number of average and underwhelming titles including spin offs that have left me longing for something like this, something that captured the witty charm, wonder and pure action packed joy that made the originals.

    A Rift Apart has stunning visuals, immense set pieces and locations teeming with life and discovery and in my opinion the strongest supporting cast of any game in the series. That’s not to mention that the series returns with all of its signatures in full form, like over-the-top weapons, awesome gadgets & unique puzzles.

    The concept of travelling through dimensions via rifts is executed beautifully in both cutscenes and gameplay, showing off the potential of the PS5’s new ssd to instantly load entire worlds with effectively no trickery or loading screens.

    Suffice it to say that this game was an absolute joy to play through and 100% complete, I had a grin on my face practically the entire time and not a single moment felt wasted. I wholeheartedly cannot wait to see where insomniac take this beloved series next!    … Expand

    I had to buy the PS5 with this game included, to avoid having to wait even longer. It was not high on my priority list. I found this game not very difficult and not very long either, but I enjoyed it very much. Also my 7 year old likes it. For him its great that it's translated in Dutch. The options to make it very easy (can't die from bullets f.e.), make it playable for him.

    The game has great story but has a few bugs too....and Rift Apart's too much short game.

    Its a game to be enjoyed without stress

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I personally encountered a few clipping bugs when around some objects on the first level got caught by a plant and vine/bench when the scenery transformed during a rift change. Some of the platforming wasn't as smooth as I liked. The dragon should have been landable anywhere not just on its nest. The costumes were nice but it's a shame you couldn't choose the perks from them and wear a different costume. I liked the story and characters. The game is short however and finishable within a day The cheat system for collecting all the goodies(bolts/spy bots) makes the final boss trivial. I like the fact that anyone can complete this game and feel nice about it. Due to the minor glitches, a little shorter gameplay than i would have liked, and still no Lombax convention, I have to give it an 8.… Expand

This game truly delivers the promised future of what next gen games are willing to do at their peaks. Thank you insomniac for such a wonderful experience. in this review i am going to talk about the good and the bad and overall experience and why i think it deserves an 8 and not a 10 cuz its the weakest of the franchise and feels more like another PS5 tech demo at some aspects rather than a full fledged game.

    THE GOOD:
    and this section is going to be the longest so stay tuned...
    This game with its visuals is something really earth shaking and the people behind insomniacs animation teams and graphics engine are truly magicians! If there is one thing i need to understand is how insomniac games managed to deliver Spiderman miles morals as cross gen and Spiderman remasterd and ratchet and clank rift apart all within less than a year!? achieving technical aspects in visuals and graphics like never before and taking full advantage of the ps5 hardware, with faster loading times and the whole rifts and dimensions stuff is something unbelievable! and i dont think that even third party games will make anything similar to this game or something that will take advantage of the ps5 hardware like first party games do. And a quick mention to the graphics modes like performance rt and performance mode are great but i preferred fidelity mode for that sharp image and effects and i am ok with that 30 fps that on a screen like mine its hard to notice. i am truly a fan boy of insomniac games!
    Gameplay wise well, i have been playing ratchet and clank since day 1 on the ps2 as a kid who just moved into underwear from diapers. I have played almost every ratchet and clank out there and rift apart is the most ambitious one of the bunch out there delivering things the title hasnt seen before like the shadow dash as well as new weapons, But in big its just like its always been but improved with a much smoother gameplay rather than arcady or clunky and it is just right here.
    Sound design and soundtrack and music is unbelievable! If you have 3D audio headset or the ps5 pulse 3d you are in for a blast of a sound!!! This game really does deliver audio that i dont think even returnal has managed to deliver. Its a joy to listen to this game even if youre just standing somewhere not doing anything it really feels like youre in that universe.
    Presentation wise and world and attention to detail and the rifts are such a game changer! Thank to the ps5's hardware i dont think pc's will get to the level of releasing games in this level anytime soon. The attention to detail and animation and level design is something that makes you really fall in love with this game. World and map are made on point! and so much work has been put into them!
    And characters wise its so hard to talk about cuz i just love every one of those characters and my gosh this game is really something! by the end i clapped my hands with a smile and was so happy for the experience of this game and i cant wait for a sequel! All the characters are well acted and designed and made in such a fashion that even the new characters introduced into the series are characters i fell in love with!

    THE BAD:
    As a vet of the series i gotta admit. There is nothing to do after you finish the game and collect all the collectibles which are easy to find. The worlds are small yet detailed but they get really boring after you finish the missions within them. And the glitch missions are annoying! Like honestly i was so glad i finished with her, It was pointless and short and really didnt feel necessary. Clank puzzles are the worst they have ever been in the series! They are extremely easy and all of them are literally the same!!! I would really want to see in the future, more of secret agent clank missions and other activities like racing or collecting the captain quark cartages and playing the mini games or exploring more of the world and doing more activities rather than just collecting and doing main quests in the world. The universe of this game feels empty compared to other previous titles. And the game had issues like showing objective icons and having a few bugs like where npc's would run away from me but they werent game breaking and easily fixed with a reload.

    OVERALL
    I love this game and if you read the good and bad you know why this game is an 8 for me and with a lot of love! I truly want to see more of the series and sadly we didnt get that big ratchet and clank game just yet. Its a great way to show off the ps5 capabilities but i feel like all the focus of this game was on that rather than the actual game as a whole. After 2 playthroughs (the game is short) i think im done with this game, i have no interest going back into it anymore as much as i did when i played the 3rd game on the ps2. Was a hell of an experience but made me want more.    … Expand

The only complaint I have is the lack of enemy and boss variety. You must play this if you have a Ps5. Worth the 70$ for the replayability. I feel bad for people who haven't gotten a Ps5 yet.

    This game is not a joke, it lasts 4-6 hours, it lasts longer and if you want to get the platinum trophy it will keep you entertained for a while 10-12 hours, after that there is no more. In the promotional trailers it shows moves that cannot be done in the base game. Unlike the previous Ratchet and Clank where they opted for a trans-media experience with an animated film, here they did nothing of that and it is applauded since the character is not at all charismatic.    … Expand

    - The dash cannot be animation cancelled into a melee attack, meaning using dash as an offensive move is all but useless
    - You cannot switch weapons whenever your feet is not touching the ground. This restriction not only makes no sense, but makes it impossible to fast-weapon-switch to maximize DPS while also jump/juking.
    - Double jump fails if you hold the first jump input too long and trigger the hover
    - Clambering is very sloppy, you'll clamber at the wrong height, not clamber at all. Also you can't rebound from a clamber

    While the main campaign is quite easy, it is the challenge arenas where the combat in this game really shows its cracks. Unlike Doom or Returnal, where skillful movement can make you untouchable for long-stretches of combat, in this game, enemies have a random spray to their fire. So you WILL get nicked by seemingly unavoidable, off-camera damage (the extremely low FOV doesn't help either). In the challenge arenas, you don't get much health recovery, so every hit REALLY matters. So without a way to skillfully avoid damage or recover health, too much is left to chance.    … Expand

Storyline is a little too saccharine for my taste, and the humor and dialogue are eye-rolling, but that all falls down to personal preference. There's nothing really wrong with it, and it is appropriate to the setting, and target audience, which isn't me. Main complaint is how easy the game is.

    The story gets a bit of a backdrop, as the focus is entirely on gameplay.

    Furthermore, the game "innovates" with the optimal use of the PS5's SSD power, and the transition of worlds/dimensions is just unbelievable.

    Not to mention the game's graphics, which even with a slight downgrade compared to the trailers, still look extremely beautiful and worthy of high-budget 3D animations.

    However, some of the problems I've seen in the game are a lot of bugs.
    Sometimes the game just crashes and I need to restart it, or the character is stopped and I can't move it anymore.
    Of course there will always be bugs in every game, but the amount I had in Ratchet is rather worrying, and I would say it can spoil the gameplay to some extent.

    Another point of the game is a repetition on enemies, who mostly do the same thing, and it turns out that the whole game is quite repetitive (on the other hand, there are weapons we can use, which are very varied and have different and fun features)

    And for me, one thing that made me extremely upset is the duration of the game, which is quite short.
    I finished the game in less than 20 hours, and it doesn't have much replay factor (at least for me), which made me very upset as it technically didn't make up for much of the high price of the game.

    Overall, I give a grade 8/10
    Ratchet innovates with the PS5's SSD and its world transition, as well as having beautiful graphics and fun gameplay at various points
    However, it has a lot of bugs and at some point the game becomes quite repetitive, taking away the relatively short duration, which doesn't compensate for the high price of the game.

    Don't get me wrong, the game is AWESOME, but it still has a lot to improve, and I hope that in future updates new content and several enemies will be added, which will be really cool because this game so far is one of the most promising PS5 exclusives from next-gen (so far)    … Expand
