Ratchet and Clank are torn into separate dimensions, where they meet Rivet, a Lombax resistance fighter. Insomniac uses the PS5's fast storage for instant jumps between worlds. It's colorful, funny and packed with weapons.

Tips
Play it better
- Rift Tether onto purple rift tears to zip across arenas and dodge big attacks.
- Phantom Dash makes you briefly invulnerable, so dash through attacks rather than away from them.
- Spend Raritanium on weapon upgrade grids, and aim for the hidden bonus nodes in the middle.
- Weapons level up by use, so rotate through your arsenal instead of relying on one gun.
- Pocket dimensions are short side puzzles that reward you with armor pieces with useful perks.
- Use the PS5's adaptive triggers; half-pulls and full pulls fire different modes on many weapons.
