Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart was one of the big game reveals during the PlayStation 5 showcase, and it looks like the next-gen technology will be able to create an immersive and memorable experience when the next title in the classic PlayStation series returns.
And Insomniac Creative Director Marcus Smith has shared just how that new technology drives innovation and change in the upcoming game. The ultra-high-speed SSD that everyone has been raving about is integral in allowing the developers to create these worlds that Ratchet and Clank will instantly transport between.
Also, the DualSense wireless controller is essential in providing haptic feedback and convincing interaction with the many alien weapons that our heroes will be using. The feature even differentiates between how the weapons are used.
If that weren’t enough, the 3D spatial audio will transport players through the rift-connected universe with more engagement and precise audio cues than ever before.
I’m excited, both for the PS5 and for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. It’s a series I love to play on a console platform that I cherish the most. The new video game innovations that will appear in the next generation are going to drive the industry forward, and I can’t wait to see what transpires.
Are you impressed with what we’ve seen so far in Ratchet & Clank?
