    I would recommend this game to every ps5 owner because it is the only game that made me realize the difference between 60hz and 120hz. It has its small flaws, but it also reminds you that you are playing a next-gen console.

    Es una decaída en la saga, no aporta nada al genero, y la dificultad es nula en todo momento. Puede aburrir facilmente

    - 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

En el último tiempo, gracias a que ahora puedo costearme otras consolas, pude acceder al catalogo de exclusivos de Sony y Playstation. Y de todos, Ratched and Clank ha sido esa franquicia que me hace sentir como si parte de mi niñez hubiese sido desperdiciada. Elementos de shooter frenético con combate cuerpo a cuerpo, puzzles, y plataformeo, que se mezclan con una historia atractiva para todos los públicos. Rift Apart se ve como una película de pixar, pero no sólo se ve genial, sino que se juega de maravilla. La progresión de las armas y distintos power up nunca deja una sensación de agobio o tedio; se trata de un sistema de combate y personalización del personaje que engancha tanto como la recolección de los distintos coleccionables alrededor del mapa. Al igual que con Spiderman, Insomniac consigue que sea divertidos jugar a sus entregas; no destaca al máximo en sus distintos apartados, pero el resultado es adictivo por sí solo. De momento, dejando a un lado a Resident Evil Village y esperando lo que pueda ofrecer Metroid Dread, este se convierte en mi GOTY personal del año. Una auténtica maravilla adictiva.… Expand

    I am not a hard core gamer but I am glad that there is a rookie level. I am at level 5. Normally I can’t pass level one on these games but paying 70 bucks makes you try harder lol I love the graphics and unique level of play. Not sure if I can finish it but hey at least I got further than expected.

    Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is a joyful new game in the series, taking advantage of the PS5's SSD to deliver some new things that couldn't be done on PS4.

    If you've played any previous Ratchet and Clank game before, you'll feel at home with this one. This is a story based 3rd person shooter with platforming elements and great characters. Crazy gadgets and weapons have always been what makes this series' gameplay stand out. Previous games have featured sandbox-style open levels but this new game offers a couple of levels that are quite large maps, almost open worlds on their own complete with side quests and NPCs. They are so big in fact that you are given rocket boots to travel faster than by feet, as if driving a vehicle.

    Shooting enemies is the main activity but there are also other things to do. First there are the dimensional puzzles of Clank. Then there are the twin stick shooter levels with Glitch where you clean up viruses in computers. There are a few racing sequences with the speed bug (not races to win a trophy, but just races to escape). And you can find many dimensional bubbles, or rather mini levels, to explore for bonuses.

    No other game out there delivers this experience of instantaneous dimension hopping as well as this game does, thanks to the ultra fast SSD. There is also a sequence far into the game with the giant robot seen in the trailers that couldn't possibly be done on PS4 in a real-time in-engine cutscene. Instead on PS5 this sequence is rendered in real-time and playable, even though it's on-rails and scripted, but so much is happening that PS4 could only playback an FMV video of it.

    Insomniac Games again deliver an outstanding amount of choice when it comes to graphics and frame rate. Similar to what they've done with Spiderman Remastered and Miles Morales, you can choose between a Quality mode (dynamic 4K30 with Ray Tracing reflections), a Performance mode (dynamic 4K60 without RT) and a Performance RT mode (dynamic 1080p60 with Ray Tracing reflections). Personally I always play these games on Performance RT mode because it offers the best of both worlds (60 fps and RT). Recently the developers patched a new 120Hz mode that allows you to play the game with lower latency at 60 fps for the Performance Modes (with and without Ray Tracing) and a 40 fps option when selecting the (normally 30 fps) Fidelity Mode at 4K resolution.

    The star of the show is the Dualsense controller. The haptics ain't as good as those of Astro's Playroom (a game literally designed around the Dualsense), but the adaptive triggers basically act as 2 buttons each. Most of the weapons provide 2 modes, like press the trigger halfway for a single shot or press it fully to switch to continuous fire. Input latency is also low. The 3D Audio effect is pretty neat, too, especially with headphones.

    The story isn't anything sophisticated. Just like previous games, it's merely an excuse to zap enemy robots with exotic weaponry. But the concept of the dimension hopping is well-realized by centering the plot around the dimensionator weapon shown in the trailers. You've probably heard it already, so here it is. With dimension hopping you get to meet alternate versions of the established characters. Rivet is a good new character, but she replaces Ratchet as lead character for most of the game's duration.

    One little complaint that I have about this game is the bugs. The game doesn't crash, nor is my character launched into space. Some times when speeding up with the rocket boots through a level I get stack as if I was hitting an invisible wall when it shouldn't happen, easily solved with a simple jump. Other times I have encountered mission progression bugs (mostly on Clank's dimension puzzle levels when swapping spheres), which is easily fixed with a checkpoint restart. Last but not least, although this game has plenty of quality, I wish it had a bit more content or a lower price. At $70/80 Euros this game costs a bit too much money.

    Overall Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is a technical showcase for the PS5. Developers Insomniac Games are easily my favorite Sony studio after releasing multiple quality games within 3 years (Spiderman, Spiderman Remastered, Miles Morales, now Rift Apart). Can't wait for their next game.    … Expand

    This game is too short. The developers are charging $70 for what is basically a PS5 tech demo that lasts under 6 hours. That is extremely expensive. The last Ratchet & Clank game had a $40 price tag. The greedy developers had the audacity to charge $30 more for this game and they didn't even bother to make the campaign much longer.

    Une fois qu'on a dit ça, on a fait le tour du jeu. Le titre est court, les 2 personnages jouables n'ont de différences que le visuel (quelle déception), les ennemis sont inintéressant et reviennent sans relâches, bref, on voit vite les limites de l'exercice.
    A cela il faut ajouter cette "escroquerie" des fameux portails mis en valeur pour le SSD. Rien de révolutionnaire, Portal le faisait bien avant lui et d'autres jeux depuis. Moi qui pensait qu'on pourrait créer nos propres portails et aller d'un monde à l'autre, c'est loupé.

    Par contre, j’ai eu le droit à 2 gros bugs. Le 1er après un passage dans un portail, le monde avait totalement disparu et je marchais dans le vide intersidéral. Obligé de « trouver » un trou pour me suicider et faire réapparaitre le niveau…
    Le 2ème plus chiant où j’ai cru que j’allais devoir tout recommencer, c’est dans une arène où je suis tombé dans un trou. Dès lors le jeu m’a fait réapparaître dans l’arène mais je ne pouvais plus bouger. Le pire étant que même en mourant, ça me faisait revenir au même endroit sans pouvoir bouger. (idem en éteignant le jeu et en chargeant la dernière sauvegarde). Heureusement, j’ai pu loader une sauvegarde Check point un peu plus vieille, mais pas trop pour relancer le jeu… J’ai cru que j’allais devoir effacer la sauvegarde et tout recommencer au début…

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.

    Very fun and light-hearted game that begins to showcase what the PS5 is capable of. The level design can feel very immersive as enemies, bolts, explosions, bullets etc. will fill the entire screen at one time while you're dodging and jumping around. Game runs smoothly w/o hiccups and HDR colors pop. One thing to note is that it's an easy game.. I platinumed it within one week.

    I didn’t much care for the story as I’ve never really been invested in the R&C games but the gameplay and graphics were absolutely phenomenal, I would wait for it to drop in price then I absolutely recommend that people try it

    THE ADVENTURE BEGINS
    Finally we got a PS5 game that is only made for the next-gen console. I’ve been waiting for this title and finally played it through. I enjoyed it, but yet it got some negative aspect to it.

    Finally we got a PS5 game that is only made for the next-gen console. I’ve been waiting for this title and finally played it through. I enjoyed it, but yet it got some negative aspect to it.

    THE GAMEPLAY, CONTROLS AND PLOT
    First thing I noticed was the graphics. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart looks crisp and clean, like an animation movie. The game also runs nicely, although I ran some major bugs and game-breaking glitches along the way. It annoyed me surely, when I had to start a boss battle all over again or redo some 5 minute gameplaying.

    The gameplay was OK, but it felt little bit dated. It was very much like the previous title Ratchet & Clank (2016) and I wanted something new. The game had new variations of weapons which felt kind of an overkill. I soon realized all the weapons were made to make the replaying more fun. All the weapons were updgradeable and it takes many replayings to fully upgrade all of them.

    The controls felt good. I mean felt because of the DualSense controller and its haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. This is thing that is hard to explain, it need to be experienced.

    The plot was rather simple and straightforward; Doctor Nefarious (an evil enemy from previous games) steals Dimensionator, which breaks and cracks the dimensions. Ratchet and Clank goes after him to get it back. As the other dimensions are now available to travel, another character called Rivet joins to the mission.

    SOME TRUE PS5 POWERS
    What makes Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart amazing is the PS5’s super fast SSD, that can load the game in blink of an eye. There’s no loading screens, which feels odd as I’m not used to that. Other amazing feature is the 3D audio which can be enjoyed with any headphones. I played this with heaphones attached to the controller and the audio was cinema-quality.

    THE LAST WORDS
    Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is (in my opinion) the first true 100% PS5 game, because it uses all the power of PS5, 3D audio and all aspects of DualSense controller. There’s not much else I can say about this game other than it is must play if you own the PS5 console.    … Expand

    Rift Apart's a fun game with a few funny stuff to enjoy the gameplay. Ive played with 120 fps (120hz) in performance mode and the visuals are stunning! The best thing of Rift Apart is his visuals.
    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

    Ratchet and Clank: A Rift apart is a fantastic looking game wit some fun, if not revolutionary gameplay mechanics. Every thing is visually stunning and the world is just a joy to go through. Ratchet himself is an annoying character, and I oftentimes wish that Rivet was the main character in the game. The game could could have been longer considered the asking roice. But solid game nevertheless.

The only negative thing is the time to beat the game. I played it on platinum in under 15 hours. But over all rift apart is a really good game.

    The gameplay is also worth mentioning. Every R and C game shines in a unique way because of the gameplay, and this is no difference. I won't spoil you so I cannot specify more, but I will say that you will have a great time and a feeling of pure joy. Of course this is not a perfect game as such thing is impossible, in fact it still has to polish a bit more removing some bugs... However this game really is worth of the price and I absolutely believe everyone who gives it a try will fall in love with the story and the evolution of the characters.    … Expand

    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

The different planets are so unique, colorful, vibrant, the level design is top notch., I’m playing in RT Performance mode, and the lightning and ray tracing are beautiful. The details on Ratchet’s face are mind blowing.

    Gameplay : this is a big one. The game blends melee combat, shooting (with many, fun and varied weapons), platforming (classic platforming, swinging, rail surfing, wall running, racing, flying, even catapulting), exploration, puzzle solving and even beat em up sections. Also, the photo mode is insane. I keep taking pictures left and right. The game is relatively short but you have quite a lot of collectibles to find and make you busy without being overwhelming. And it’s definitely a game that screams for a second playthrough.

    Characters and story : of course the story is not as deep and complex as The Witcher 3 or Naughty Dog games for example, but it is great for what it is. The characters are fun and adorable, even the baddies, Ratchet is a great hero, the ennemies are fun and diverse, the atmosphere is awesome. I also love the humour in the game.

    Technical innovation : this game could totally be marketed as a PS5 tech demo. It uses the Dual Sense controller perfectly and it makes the game very immersive. Also, the SSD is used to perfection and allows new gameplay possibilities like teleporting instantly inside of a map, which is very impressive and makes the experience truly next gen.

    In conclusion, this will probably be my game of the year. Can’t recommand it enough. Bravo Insomniac, can’t wait for a sequel !    … 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.

The Heart in the Endboss was invisible what made me restart a Chapter and Ratchet was in a endless loop of falling and dying what made me restart a Chapter again.

    What’s so good about this installment of Ratchet and Clank is that it is a true labor of love. There is no other way a game can feel so good, play so well, and take you on an impressive adventure all without that special ingredient to keep it going.
