Ratchet & Clank is a remastered version of the action adventure game, originally released on PlayStation 2 by the authors of the original - American team Insomniac Games.

Plot

In the world presented in Ratchet & Clank the galaxy is threatened with destruction - the villain Alonzo Drek wants to create a planet from its remains for the Blarg race. To thwart him, the titular duo try to find Captain Qwark, a superhero who is the only hope of stopping the destruction.

The game tells the story of the duo's first adventure together - the player gets to know the circumstances in which the main characters of the series met.

Mechanics

Ratchet & Clank is a third-person (TPP) action adventure game with 3D platformer elements. The game mechanics do not differ from those of the previous parts of the series. During the adventure we direct mainly Ratchet, and Clank plays the role of a backpack, which offers several practical features (e.g. it allows to move underwater). TThe whole game is about exploring locations (often in order to reach the goal we have to jump on various objects) and fighting.

Players have a number of different weapons at their disposal. However, not all of them are unlocked from the beginning. During the exploration we can find screws - collecting them in the right amount will allow to buy new models of weapons.

Game modes

Ratchet & Clank can only be played solo.

PS4 Pro Update

Ratchet & Clank takes advantage of the extra power offered by the PlayStation 4 Pro. Among other things, we have the possibility to play the game in 4K resolution and with HDR effect.
