Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (Download) (PC)

Sehr unterhaltsames Action-Abenteuer mit ausgesprochen sympathischen Charakteren, dessen Start auf dem PC allerdings nicht fehlerfrei verläuft.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart ist ein technisches Meisterwerk, das endlich alle Möglichkeiten der PlayStation 5 gekonnt ausnutzt. Auch wenn die Story, die Nebenaufgaben und Minispiele oftmals etwas zu altbekannt wirken, fehlt es dem Titel keineswegs an genügend Spielspaß, um Veteranen als auch Neueinsteiger bis übers New Game+ hinaus zu unterhalten.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart isn’t afraid to revel in its mascot-platformer roots, but it manages to knock so many of its competitors completely out of the water. The secret sauce? Insomniac knows that a strong presentation goes a long way, and they’ve stretched this formula about as far as it can go with plenty of customization and a compelling world to play around in.

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is one of the best entries in the series yet, with gripping chaotic shootouts, exhilarating platforming, and a charming story. Thanks to the extra firepower of the PS5 there are lots of next-gen upgrades to enjoy, too, from the jaw-dropping 4K visuals to the immersive DualSense feedback. This is a must-buy for PS5 owners.

Like the heroes and villains and their dimensional counterparts, this one may appear different or carry itself with a new accent, but there's an underlying truth to the person underneath. At its core, it's still your trusty old pals on another grand space adventure. That's what's important.

Insomniac Games' latest sequel roars with excitement and shows us what PlayStation 5 is capable of.

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is the PlayStation 5 showcase you have been waiting for. Instantaneous travel to worlds thanks to the SSD, thumping 3D audio, ray tracing through the gorgeous levels, and clever use of the DualSense bring the many locations to life. Paired with classic Ratchet & Clank gameplay, this game is a riotous feast of explosions, platforming, and fast paced action.
