    One of the first real reasons to buy PS5. This intergalactic adventure of famous series is full of great gameplay, inventive game design, gripping story, and great characters. It's a game for everyone who owns PS5. Actually, it’s a game for everyone.

    Rift Apart is a technical showcase, but it's also one of the finest 3D action platformers since Jak and Daxter. Insomniac consistently proves that the Ratchet and Clank series is a wellspring of potential, and they've delivered a complete experience that's as full of heart as it is surprises.

    Ratchet And Clank Rift Apart is an excellent game, very fun and sets the bar very high. With a nervous and devilishly effective gameplay and its sublime and bluffing universe of life, it is undoubtedly the one we were waiting for. The breathtaking rhythm between each stunning cinematic. A video game that offers the perfect blend between a Pixar and pure Ratchet. Too bad that Rivet does not come out more in its gameplay because it is a superb character.

    Funny, wonderfully lively, sublime and impossible to leave once embarked on the adventure, Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart offers exactly what we expected: A delightful space journey through dimensions, suitable for the whole family.

    Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is an exceptional entry in the storied franchise. It doesn’t reinvent the series, but instead uses Insomniac's decades of experience to create a familiar and refined take on the universe. Newcomer Rivet is immediately relatable and a great addition to the wonderful cast. Modern technology like the PlayStation 5’s DualSense controller and SSD enrich the experience of exploration and combat. Whether you’ve been following the series since 2002, or you’re just hopping in for the first time, Rift Apart is a must-play summer blockbuster.

    There was a kind of magic in the early Ratchet & Clank games, and then a competence in the later lesser games. The frenetic onscreen chaos of wacky cartoon monsters, smashed crates, imaginative gunplay, and a swarm of bouncing coins was a true joy as we all discovered it twenty years ago. These days, it’s all on offer in a hundred different games. But without the magic or at least the competence, it’s just a flurry of sloppy colors and shapes, a whirlwind of ineffectual nostalgia, absent any innovation, creativity, confidence, or finesse. It took many years, but now that it’s being used to prop up a piece of hardware, Ratchet & Clank finally feels like the soulless corporate property it’s become.

    Without a shadow of doubt, this is now my favorite Ratchet and Clank game. Easily a 10/10 masterpiece created by Insomniac games.

The story has great character development while exploring how their experiences effect mentality. The graphics are insane, the music, controls with the dual sense and everything are incredible. I really recommend this game to new gamers to this franchise. Insomniac has shown the possibility of creating a Pixar level Triple A. The technical side is top notch while having the option to running in 60 FPS or having to play in 4K. Game of the Year for me in my opinion and they deserve it especially with their mascot character s Expand

    Ich bin wirklich kein übergroßer Ratchet & Clank Spiel und das obwohl ich bis jetzt jedes Spiel gespielt habe, egal ob auf Heimonsolen, oderIch bin wirklich kein übergroßer Ratchet & Clank Spiel und das obwohl ich bis jetzt jedes Spiel gespielt habe, egal ob auf Heimonsolen, oder auf den Handhelds, aber dieses Spiel hat mich wirklich überrascht, abgesehen von der unfassbar schönen und spektakulären Grafik, hat dieses Spiel auch noch so viel mehr zu bieten. Die Geschichte ist sehr spannend und an manchen Punkten extrem spektakulär inszeniert (Ich sage nur die Flucht vor der Krake), zudem gefallen mir die neuen Protagonisten Rivet und Kid auch extrem, sie sind lustig, liebenswert und haben zudem jeweils eine sehr gute Hintergrund Geschichte, das einzige was man dem Spiel vorwerfen kann ist die extrem kurze Spielzeit von etwa 6 Stunden, denn sogar das für die kurze Spielzeit von Fans gehasste (aber von mir trotzdem geliebte) The Order 1868 hat immerhin eine Story die etwa 10 Stunden umfasst. Auch wenn diese kurze Spielzeit durchaus schade ist und man für 70€ eigentlich mehr bekommen sollte muss ich dem Spiel einfach 10 Punkte geben.
    Ich kann jedem einzelnen, egal ob groß, oder klein nur empfehlen dieses Spiel zu spielen.
