    Big fan of the ratchet and clank series although I felt the story was too short. May have just been me and time flew by quickly but I was wishing there was more at the end. Still phenomenal game and a great example of this new generations possibilities.

    Eines der besten Ratchet and Clank Spiele überhaupt. Grafisch und Spielerisch sehr gut umgesetzt. Auch die Spielzeit ist genau richtig.

    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.

    Muy bonitas graficas pero saliendo de eso, todo lo demás es mucho peor que el de playstation 4, demasiado fácil y corto para los 80 dolares, como la gran mayoría de los juegos de playstation , mucha cinemática y narrativa pobre y poco gameplay innovador, lo siento. Mejor vean una película de Pixar.

If you're a hardcore Ratchet & Clank Fan, Rift Apart will definitely disappoint you. Rift Apart has amazing graphics, but thats where the good begins and ends. The story is completely watered-down and doesn't acknowledge any of the previous entries in the series. Ratchet and Clank are sidelined to make way for their female counterparts who are not fleshed out properly given that the game is at most, 12 hours-long.

    Gameplay is the exact same as it was in 2009, but with new, underwhelming weapons. No, you don't get to personally modify your weapons. Its the same boring system that R&C 2016 had where you slightly upgrade 'ammo-count' or 'slightly increase damage', which leads to every player having the same weapons by the endgame. No space exploration as well, which is disappointing. The writing is terrible, with cliche & cringey lines about friendship and "doing the right thing".

    The best thing about this game is how the controller feels when you shoot a gun. It feels exciting when you fire a shotgun with both barrels by fully pressing the trigger on the controller with resistance.

    No idea how people are giving this 9/10's or 10's. If you want a game to shut-up your kids, this is it. However, if you're an adult, you should really get help.

    I struggled to find anything wrong. It was a pleasure from start to finish: Insane graphics and performance with addictive, smooth gameplay, amazing use of dual sense haptics, side/mini missions I actually wanted to complete, and a host of quality of life improvements on the previous PS4 version.

    Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is just phenomenal. It has great and likable characters, fun and satisfying gameplay, great level design and gripping soundtrack. There are some minor problems like invisible walls in places you wouldn’t expect, but overall it is an absolutely fantastic game that you don’t want to miss!

    Really enjoyed the game. Im a big fan since childhood, and this takes me back in. Some of the ps3 games were not that good, and the ps4 game was really bad, but this one really is a master piece. I dont give a 10 because i miss Ratchet personality being more edgy.

    4,5 hours of game excluding its cutscenes. 6 hours of game including its cutscenes. Same mechanics, gimmick controls, it was very promoted for its ssd abilities, yet in game the game loads way slower than it was advertised. Hit boxes during fight moments do their own things. Bitter feelin once youll beat it cause its not worth of even $20. This game should be rented for a week at max price of $4.

    Upgrades are based upon a collectible in the game you can collect while roaming around but you can also grind it in arena combat mode.
    The game is easier than previous ratchet and clank game even on the hardest difficulties.
    Their was a side quest where it ramped up the difficulty so high and its nearly impossible unless you are lucky or have perseverance. It was weird that this specific side quest(glitch sidequest) was ramped up to 100 for some reason and not the difficulty in the normal gameplay
    There are annoying parts with the game especially the fog of war or what ever you call it in some areas which is an annoyance.
    I like the two character system but please remember you spend less time as ratchet vs the other character.
    there are bugs on the arena world where you can not access the holovids where you can’t see the weapon cutscene or dialog.
    In most ratchet and clank games, they usually make new weapons and in this game most of the weapons were re-used and only 1 new weapon were actually fun and useful (the negatron collider).
    The secret weapon was useless because the rocket launcher did more damage than it which is kinda weird when it’s a secret ultra omega hidden abandoned forbidden weapon.
    Gameplay is just solid in all regards. I give it a 1.5.

    Let’s Talk about the Music
    The music in this was alright in all aspects. It felt natural towards the feel of the game that I have no qualms about but I don’t remember a lot of aspects of the music.
    Background Music felt fine and nothing grating.
    Special Scene music felt find and nothing grating.
    In my personal Opinion. It was fine but nothing memorable.
    it has an audio level issue, had to reduce music and sfx to adequate levels so I could hear the dialog.
    I feel this deserves a 2.0 in this aspect

    Lets talk about the performance
    The performance of this is S-tier.
    Solid 60 fps with raytracing on and off.
    Never had an issue, no frame drop, no screen tearing, no frame timing issue.
    Beauty in disguise.
    They treated their queen correctly.
    2.5 is their reward.

    Let’s talk about the story
    The story is what I would say the most part I didn’t enjoy as much as I did.
    The story started off very very strong, and I was smiling the whole way through.
    Bosses were good and everything, it just felt rushed like crazy.
    this game needed to be fleshed out more. every area we visiting felt like 10-20 minutes their then we dipped.
    I get it is supposed to be a short adventure but people didn’t pay 70 bucks msrp for a short adventure.
    If it was a short adventure, people should paid like it was a short adventure.
    I was expecting near the end of the game to be another boss but I’m like huh what, that’s it.
    You get more info on the plumber if you want to know about that person.
    If their was more story to the game I would’ve liked it a lot but not at that price point.
    I’m giving it a 1.5 because I am expecting more storyful experience for a fully priced game at msrp

    In Conclusion
    This game is worth a 7.5 but you should not buy it at msrp of 70 bucks and wait to buy it @ 30-40 bucks and get playstation extra and play it.
    This is more so a glorified tech demo with ratchet and clank so they can advance the story of the game as well and sell the console.
    I am saddened because I really do love ratchet and clank, I feel in love with the series on the ps3 with tools of destruction when it released.
    I truly hate that I have to give it this review score but I must.
    Thank you for tuning in, This is a sad NFROMO and have a nice day

    + Probably the best looking game on the PS5, and that's saying something
    + Goofy arsenal of weapons galore

    - Level design is a bit dated and felt lacking
    - Shooting mechanics and general gameplay weren't as polished as I'd hoped
    - Boring enemy design

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a great game, combat is fun and visuals are stunning. It played surprisingly well on fidelity mode too which I thought would be unplayable. Story is alright, and just like everyone expected the humor doesn’t hit like it did back in the ps2 days. Seems to almost be an incomplete games at times which I think is just an insomniac thing at this point. Make it just good enough to be considered a great game even though there are some things that could’ve been polished up. Firstly is the platforming, somehow that took a step back, jumping up on various things can almost feel janky at times. There’s also big sections that are defined on the game map that look like they should be secret areas. Instead they are empty and sometimes provide no way to return which can result in having to restart at a checkpoint. This can be seen i think the most on sargasso. Also they still do the thing where if you stray too far outside the world map you just instantly die. I hate that, these are cool alien worlds. Have a monster come out and gobble you up like in older games. It’s just a weird thing that never needed to be changed, I’m guessing it’s just one more thing to animate and they figured people wouldn’t care. Like I mentioned before exploration can be a little unrewarding at times. Also a weird thing I found is the animations can be way off from the actual hit boxes when out exploring areas, not combat I mean like boulders where you start clipping through while trying to climb it, stuff like that. That’s just straight up laziness. This isn’t a very long game, I don’t see why they couldn’t have polished that stuff up, kinda disappointing for a game that’s supposed to be the next big thing and change everything. Anyways still a solid 8 just because I had such a fun time playing it. Definitely recommend it if you have a ps5. Expand

    Absolutely loved the game. Insomniac's games have sometimes been a bit hit or miss for me but Rift Apart is fantastic in almost every way. Excellent characters with a good storyline and gameplay.

    The only slight miss were those puzzle levels with Clank. I get that they wanted to break up the gameplay a bit but I wasn't feeling it.

    No doubt this is one of the best looking graphical showcases ever made. I am playing this in 2023 and the game still stuns compared to other PS5 games. The best description I have is “playable Pixar movie”. I know the characters are made of triangles, but I can’t see it anywhere. Weapons and interactions with the environment also look great. The colorful character and level design finishes this showcase.

    The gameplay is the same Ratchet and Clank I played on PS4. Harkening back to the days before twin sticks, this is not so much a shooter as a beat’em’up with guns. The weapons have a nice fun factor. Though none of the weapons seem as crazy as the old Sheepinator, I have a lot more of this game to play. The gameplay does not feel as good as a shooter, but then again, no shooter has the fun world traversal of this kind of game. The games story is your basic map traversal, destroying all enemies, and triggering a cut scene. This kind of game was never my thing back in the PS1 and PS2 generations. I was all about shooters and strategy games on PC and Xbox. There is no nostalgia button for me here. I see the limits on gameplay as a limit on how much fun I can have. I have no issue with the humor in this game. I would like to see more of it. I also have no issue with all ages wholesomeness. I could fill this game with more cute animal aliens. I see this game as a launch window title to tide over players until the big games like Horizon and God of War release. For a PS+ Extra subscriber, this is a nice surprise.

    Full disclosure, I downloaded this game from my PS+ subscription.

This one was the weakest of the 3 altough it has the highest reviews score (playstation exclusives seem many times to be unbalanced positive and thats also the case here). But its still a decent game with very good graphics. It has its good moments but also its bad ones. The metacomputer puzzles are annoying.

    I enjoyed my playthrough of Ratche & Clank: Rift Apart. Visually, the game is just stunning. The choice of a vibrant color palette coupled with next gen graphic processing really shows what the PS5 is capable of.

    In terms of gameplay, its not all half bad but does leave something to be desired for those of us seeking a more challenging experience. Even at higher difficulty levels, the game doesnt really present us with any real challenges. This could have been easily solved for example by making certain enemies more vulnerable to certain weapons, as was demonstrated masterfully in Doom eternal. Additionally, some of the controls are a bit cumbersome and there isnt much room for vastly customising them to help make switching between dash, etc more smoothly.

    The set pieces and level design are done quiet well, and when i consider the game as a whole I understand it s target audience may not necessarily be interested in razor edge death combat, and thats fine. While it might not wholly be to be liking, I am still happy that this game came out and has something to offer for everyone.

    Jogo digno da nova geração, loadings inexistentes, o esquema de trocar as dimensões pelos cristais é sensacional, a história é o único ponto fraco, mas me diverti muito.

Nothing beats seeing enemies doing a disco dance. What disappointed me is the story and length of the game. It took me about 8 hours to complete which I would not have any issue with normally. But the first 5 hours are ok with the story really ramping up after 6 hours. And then it ends…….

    For some reason I didn’t really engage with the story. It feels like the story was chosen to fit in demonstrating the incredibly quick load times of the ps5 rather than an original idea. Still, it’s a game I would still highly recommend.

    As an long time Ratchet and Clank fan this is one the best entries in the series. The visuals and action scenes are truly spectacular. By far the best gameplay the series has ever seen. The only negative thing I have with the game is I wish it was longer!

    Hoping Insomniac continues to make great entries into this beloved series.

    After the fantastic remake of the original game, we finally get a new game after 5 years. It's biggest problem is that it's PS5 exclusive. You can't get it on PS4.

Yeah this game is great! What was surprising to me is how fast paced the game is compare to other more recent entries. This game has a very chaotic pace not seen since Up Your Arsenal. The PS3 games and even the remake were notably more slower pace then the original PS2 games. It is very welcoming to see that again! Even the writing seems more like the original PS2 games, although not by too much. But it's also still welcoming. Overall a great game and highly recommended for all PS5 Owners. It's worth buying a PS5 for this. And it is even worth robbing PS5 scalpers if it means you can play this game! If nothing else, it is a very welcoming improvement for the series. Expand

    Graphics, as you may know, look great, and I think the story for a game like this was very good. The weakest part about this game is the gameplay. Even though the game had many creative ways to make the gameplay interesting, after some time, it became repetitive. There are two reasons for this, and one of them is that Rivet and Ratchet don't have different abilities, so they feel the same.Graphics, as you may know, look great, and I think the story for a game like this was very good.

Allerdings muss man hier klar sagen, dass die hoch gepriesene "schnell die Level-Laden-Mechanik" doch eher Werbung war als eine Revolution. Die Story hat mich persönlich auch als Ratchet and Clank Fan enttäuscht. Ich war anfangs begeistert, dass es nach "Nexus" spielt, aber doch etwas zu lose. Außerdem fehlen Charaktere, die es sogar am Ende nur als Bild in die Credits schaffen. Sehr schade.

    Einen Neueinsteiger dürfte dies allerdings kaum stören. Es ist ein sehr gutes Spiel.

    O jogo tem gráficos incríveis e a jogabilidade ganhou melhorias em comparação ao jogo anterior. A história, no entanto, não cativa, o gameplay ainda não é tão fluido quanto poderia e as sessões de exploração do mapa são muito cansativas. Numa certa altura do jogo percebi que estava me forçando a jogar. Aí deixei de lado.

    If you are like me who grew up with the classic PS2 and maybe the played the PS3 and you saw this game at store. You think This will be like old time again. Yes and no . No point of saving bolts for your progressive game. The writing is pretty much how mordon Pixar is these days just okay. The old game had something similar to futurama TV 14 . The PS3 Was Pixar at it's peek quality.

    This is truly a next gen, from the graphics to the no loading between levels and switching between maps while playing. The only little nitpick is for me is some action you need to do are sometimes not very clear and a indicator that an enemy is behind me would have been nice, but this is just nitpicking.

    The support characters lack a bit of personality that they’d have had in previous games, but otherwise this is an absolutely fantastic addition to the series.

Demons Souls is the only other true PS5 game that I have played as of now, and I can say without a doubt that Rift Apart is the best looking video game I've ever played in my life. It literally looks like a modern day Pixar film. And the way it plays is truly something that I believe every gamer needs to experience. The level design, verticality, and seemingly endless fun weapons all combine to create something new and fresh. The amount of times that I have stopped because I thought it was mid-cutscene just to realize that there was no cutscene is incredible. The only downside is that it isn't that long of a game, but I personally prefer quality over quantity. Also, if you truly explore the beautifully designed areas, look for collectibles, and do the optional side missions, this game can definitely take you well into the 25+ hours mark. There is also an NG+ mode for people looking for an even tougher challenge. As someone who never really dived deep into the Ratchet and Clank series, I can firmly say that this game is a true masterpiece that should be experienced by every gamer that owns a PS5. Expand

Feels almost like the controller was made specifically for this game! The story was great, loved Rivet and Kit. To top it all off, the platinum trophy is actually attainable for the casual gamer which I feel is a rarity nowadays. The new characters and places were great, as well as the story.

    Only reason I rated it lower than a 9 was the fact that it was so short. I don't know exactly how long, but I got the platinum trophy in about 15-16 hours, and for a game that cost $70, it should've been longer. If you're not wowed by the graphics or a fan of the franchise/platform games, wait for the price to come down or when they eventually release it on PS Plus for free.

For the ppl who wanna flex their illiteracy TL;DR: ratchet and clank is finally back with a proper game. If you liked the old games you will love this one as well. No to give some pros and cons. Pros: The game is absolutely beautiful. The music is very well composed. While there is no track in here that will end up in you playlist every single piece fits perfectly into the atmosphere. The worlds offer some good variety. The characters are mostly charming as ever (didn't like nefarious in this one but judge it for yourself) and especially rivet and another new character (you will know who I mean once you meet her) are a absolutely brilliant. Hopefully they will become a main stable for the series from here on out. The gameplay was fun as ever even tho I mostly ended up missing some of my favorite weapons like the groovitron or the sgeepinator. The dimensional stuff shown in the gameplay fits very well into this platformer and gives this game way more depth during combat than the earlier titles. The ai is one of the best in the series. The story itself was amazing as well (even though a bit rushed at the end imo). All in all a very good game that I am happy I picked up. The wait was worth it. Cons: the game was way too easy to platinum. Even easier than the ps4 game. The game is almost a bit too short. I feel like 3 more worlds and a more fleshed out ending would have given this game the perfect length. There are still a lot of bugs in the game. Most are only grafical but I also encountered some bugs where I clipped through the floor. Finally the price is too high. In my country 80€ for amount of content ain't great. As memtioned earlier it felt like three was something missing. Like a more fleshed out ending. All in all a brilliant game. While a crack in time still remains as the best RnC game Rift apart manages to hold it's own next to it. The game is way more than just a tech demo for the ps5. Give this game a shot but maybe wait a bit for a small scale! Expand

    Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart is, in a single word, perfection. Returning after nearly a decade to continue the story, Rift Apart fulfills the desires of both a long awaited sequel and at the same time the beginning to a whole new era for the franchise. While a new player could easily jump into this game as their first, so much of this game has been written for returning fans who want to seeRatchet & Clank Rift Apart is, in a single word, perfection. Returning after nearly a decade to continue the story, Rift Apart fulfills the desires of both a long awaited sequel and at the same time the beginning to a whole new era for the franchise. While a new player could easily jump into this game as their first, so much of this game has been written for returning fans who want to see the unresolved plot points of the series continued. This game not only continues the journey, it pushes it to newer heights than ever before by expanding their universe into a multiverse instead.

    Ratchet and Clank return as our heroes but are quickly joined by two new characters, Rivet and... well, let's just say another. At no point in this game do you ever feel like there are only 2 main characters, rather it's always 4 with the story wonderfully focusing on them all equally along the way. As you explore several planets and meet the people who live on them with a balance of space travel and supernatural, it's hard not to think of Star Wars or other space opera stories as each location is as delightful as the last. With witty dialogue, a lot of humor, and downright wholesome and emotional moments, the cast feels so wonderful to spend time with. With PS5 technology you can also feel this through all their facial expressions, which compliment the beautiful world and environments surrounding them, as well as the stunning animations. This game simply looks beautiful at every twist and turn.

    Gameplay wise is also another level of perfection as each weapon was made with intention by the developers to be "someone's favorite" which makes each one feel so good to use. Mix this in with super intense boss fights, lots of fun challenges, and the levels themselves being a rush to play, and you have a game that you never want to put down because you're having too much fun. The music also reflects this by always having the perfect ambiance in each level, battle, and making each cutscene more intense.

    There was no one part of Rift Apart that made this game perfection, because every piece of this game's foundation was perfect as they built it. Personally, my favorite part of this game was it's characters. Ratchet is still our hero, but Rivet gets this whole game to build her up as 'also' our hero. Emperor Nefarious is wonderful, and that's all I'll say about that to avoid spoilers. But the new characters were not the only reason the characters were my favorite; the overall character development and dialogue of this cast knocked the whole game out of the part. They have real struggles, real growth, and so many wholesome moments that are too adorable for words! This game is seriously a good feels game from beginning to end, even when things are going bad for our heroes, you always have a shining light. And usually, that light is the cast itself.

    I could go on for several more paragraphs on what a perfect game Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart is, but in short: Amazing story, fun to play, intense from beginning to end, fantastic (and wholesome) characters both old and new, and both the continuation and beginning of a great world. An absolute must play for all PS5 owners

    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]
