    This game on its own is so astonishing and good that it single-handedly justifies a new generation of gaming. Once you are able to secure a PS5 for yourself, immediately get this game.

    What a beautiful game. The graphics, sound and story absolutely loved the game. I definitely recommend for Ratchet fans and anyone new to the franchise. The more i play games with the dual sense features the more i fall in love with the PS5

    Um dos grandes lançamentos de 2021 e um combo perfeito pra quem possui Pulse 3d e dualsense ,
    graficamente deslubrante , a historia é boa mas nada demais , a gameplay me conquistou fluida e dinamica , e em alguns trecho bem frenetica
    um grande titulo pro console e o primeiro de nova geração que sinto total diferença

    The most buitiful game i ever played. It looks like pixar cartoon. The leight of the game is about 12-15 hours and i think its optimal for that genre. The price could be a little lower i think, but its a top game.

    This game is one of the best games that I've played, amazing story, very impressive landscapes, best graphics I've seen to date, gameplay is awesome and still brings back that classical Ratchet & Clank feel but taken to the next-level with the power of PS5, please buy this game, worth every penny.

    This game really surprised me, that is the next generation I've been waiting for too long. Everything developers wanted to show is worth praising, after playing it, you realize what next games on PS 5 would be awaiting for us. The only one disadvantage is the size of a campaign. I definitely expected much longer story, but it didn't disappoint me at all.

    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

    This game is definitely a leap over its predecessor. The graphics are so dense and detailed. So much going on screen with highest quality I ever seen on my sony x900h. Its mind blowing and absolute treat to play. My GoTY alongside Returnal.

    Rachet and Clank Rift Apart just proves Insomniacs incredible skills in creating games. Rift Apart id definitely game of the year contender!

From the smallest creatures having fully detailed models to the incredible particle effects that get emitted from the arch weapon. It’s a fun and beautiful experience.

    The dual sense also feels amazing with Rift Apart where they take full advantage of the haptic feedback and vibration. Pulling the trigger will have 2 modes, halfway which gives you the normal effect of the gun and then when you fully pull down the trigger to use the guns full power.

    Rachet and clank Rift Apart truly shows the potential and extent Insomniac takes to create a incredible game. Rift Apart is a must play on the PS5 to see the power and potential of the next generation consoles!    … Expand

    This game is solid 10 game for me. Graphics quality was outstanding added so much excitement and fun experience. Here and there bit of annoying missions but overall I really enjoyed the game. It looked like a child game in the beginning but later it was super fun.

    Juegazo! Muy espectacular en el apartado técnico, una jugabilidad fabulosa (cuestión de subir un grado de dificultad y es bastante más desafiante) y por supuesto con el dualsense le da un toque que es una delicia.

    Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is truly a masterful next-gen spectacle. Where I had my doubts whether this game had to rely mainly on its graphics, it quickly became clear that Rift Apart is much, much more than that.

    Insomniac Games is setting a new standard for quality within its own genre. This game is finished down to the last detail and looks, feels and plays as a AAA experience.

    Insomniac Games is setting a new standard for quality within its own genre. This game is finished down to the last detail and looks, feels and plays as a AAA experience. Beautiful and well-designed worlds, each with their own look and feel, fluid combat that makes the weapons feel better than ever and well-written and designed characters that actually enrich the story. A future Ratchet and Clank without counterpart Rivet is already unimaginable.

    It's clear that the PS5's SSD comes into its own as you teleport through these worlds. Even though the game worlds are full of moving details and elements and you pull entire dimensions towards you, loading screens no longer occur and the gameplay is rock solid in 60fps with raytracing.

    The Dualsense has also been used extremely well by making almost every weapon feel and sound unique because of the adaptive triggers en build in speaker.

    It is rare but the only 'point of criticism' for me personally is the in-game flying mechanic. But if that's all, you can call this game pretty much perfect.

    Pros:
    - Combat
    - Characters (especially Rivet)
    - World design
    - Soundtrack and Sound design
    - Use of Dual Sense
    - Story
    - A truly next-gen experience

    Cons:
    - Flying mechanic (personal)    … Expand

    Se podria decir que Ratchet and Clank es el segundo tech demo para la Play 5 despues de Astros playroom. Esto significa que hablando del dual sense hasta los graficos que ofrece este titulo logran demostrarte de lo que es capaz la consola de nueva generacion. Es un juego facil pero entretenido.

    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. The definition of a next-gen title, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is a must-play that will leave you super satisfied and hungry for another big game like this one.

    The experience is so captivating, you’ll probably want to blast through the entire 10-15 hour story in one go. But the final is really disappointing: basically, the entire game is just a warm-up, while the important events will happen in the next one. [Issue#254, p.36]
