Today on the official PlayStation blog, the Creative Director at Insomniac Games, Marcus Smith, revealed Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is coming on June 11, 2021. In the post, Marcus also showed off the box art and pre-order bonuses, as well as sharing some details about the game. “Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is a brand-new full-length adventure. When the evil Dr. Nefarious uses a device that can access alternate dimensions to find a galaxy where he always wins, Ratchet and Clank are separated. As they try to re-unite, they will meet a new Lombax resistance fighter, explore new and familiar locales (but with new dimensional twists!), and wield a whole new arsenal of out of this world weapons.”

He also said that it is a standalone storyline, so new players won’t feel left out, although there will be references and “deeper layers of connection” to previous games. As for the pre-order bonuses, players will be able to get fan-favourite armour featured in Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando from 2003, as well as an early unlock of the Pixeliser weapon from Insomniac’s last entry in the series.
