The popular video game series “Ratchet & Clank” is back. “Rift Apart” appears exclusively for the Playstation 5 and makes impressive use of the possibilities of the new console. In addition to the elaborate graphics, there are still many details to discover.
“Rift Apart” is the first really new title in the platform shooter series “Ratchet & Clank” in eight years – the predecessor “Into The Nexus” came in 2013 for the Playstation 3.

At the beginning of the game, Clank presents the repaired Dimensionator, which can open paths in parallel universes. Instead of Held Ratchet, however, this ends up with the villain Dr. Nefarious. This triggers cracks in the space-time continuum – and chaos begins.
