Sporting impressive visuals and introducing brand new characters, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart looks like a promising entry in the PlayStation series. Based on a new ad meant to hype up the PS5’s launch, it seems like fans will not have to wait long to play the sequel, as a release window has been provided for Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart.
The video in question covers numerous games from Demon’s Souls to Horizon Forbidden West, showing clips from each game while a narrator talks about the “New Worlds To Explore” on PlayStation 5. In a few frames of the ad, release windows are mentioned for all the games shown off, and the PS5 exclusive Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is one of the titles to have a window provided.
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apartjoins Gran Turismo 7 in getting a release window via the advertisement, with both games slated for “the first half of 2021.” It seems like players will be taking control of the beloved Sony mascots early next year, an impressive turnaround give how Insomniac also made Spider-Man: Miles Morales in time for the PS5’s launch. The studio has clearly been busy as of late, and fans should be excited to know that they will not be waiting long for the newest Ratchet and Clank game.
The ad also provides a release window for Horizon Forbidden West, with the game slated to arrive in the back half of 2021. With three major exclusives coming to the PlayStation 5 next year, it would seem like Sony is not letting up on the gaming front. While no specific dates are given for any of the games in the commercial, aside from those launching with the PS5, having a general idea of when they are coming should be helpful.
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart was shown at Gamescom just a few months back, providing fans with plenty of info on the newest entry in the series. With multiple resolution and frame rate options, a focus on ray-tracing, and the use of the DualSense controller’s many features, the game is aiming to take full advantage of the latest PlayStation console. With the promise of old and new planets as well as more playable characters aside from the dynamic duo, Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart seems poised to please fans of the series and newcomers alike.
If the ad’s release window holds up, players will be hopping through portals and exploring new dimensions in Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart very soon. With a release window set for early 2021, quickly catching up on Ratchet and Clank’s story might just be be a good idea.
