Game Description

Spoiler

Play the game, based on the movie, based on the game! Ratchet & Clank (PS4) is a new game based on elements from the original Ratchet & Clank (PS2). Developed alongside the major motion CG-animated picture coming to theatres in 2016, Ratchet & Clank (PS4) marks the PlayStation 4 debut of PlayStation’s greatest heroes. Join Ratchet, Clank, Captain Qwark and new friends as they battle to save the Solana Galaxy from the evil Chairman Drek. With an hour of new cinematics (including footage from the film), Ratchet & Clank (PS4) takes a deeper look at the characters’ origin stories and modernizes the original gameplay. Explore the galaxy in a game that features new planets, new and updated gameplay segments, all-new bosses, all-new Clank gameplay, all-new flight sequences, and much more — with completely new visuals built to demonstrate the power of the PS4!

Battle your enemies with an out-of-this-world arsenal, including new weapons and fan-favorite tools of destruction from the Ratchet & Clank Future series. From the brand new Pixelizer (which transforms enemies into explosive 8-bit pixels) to franchise favorites like the dance-party-inducing Groovitron and wise-cracking robotic bodyguard Mr. Zurkon, Ratchet & Clank’s arsenal has never been better. Help Ratchet and Clank save the galaxy for the first time, again, exclusively on PlayStation 4!

Release Date and Price
April 12, 2016
Game will be priced at $40

Cause Ratchet and Clank is more important that Boring Souls

God I love Ratchet and Clank. Makes me wish i had a ps4

The job is secure now I gotta work so I can get money and pre-order this game to get the Bouncer because I'm cancer to the gaming community

BaconShelf · March 18, 2016, 06:26:43 AM

Wait, so is this game a remake of #1 or not? I'm really confused.

Regardless, it's the first title on ps4 that has actually interested me because >ratchet and clank

at least I can see the film.

Honestly I don't know if I should call it a remake or a reboot. A game like Halo CE Anniversary for example is a straight up remake of the first game with better graphics. Nothing else is really changed about it.

This Ratchet and Clank game is sort of a mix between a remake and reboot I guess. CEA was the same exact game whereas this R&C has more and different weapons, different situations in the levels (Ratchet flying a ship in Metropolis shooting down enemies wasn't in the first game for example), different side-antagonists as it looks like Captain Qwark is an all-around good guy this time instead of a douchelord like in the original, and its gonna have stuff from the movie.
