The trigger-happy Lombax and his robotic companion are back in action.
The story serves as an epilogue to the Future series and follows Ratchet and Clank as they escort criminal Vendra Prog to maximum security prison. Things go awry when Vendra's twin brother Neftin busts her out. The duo must now race against the clock and stop the Progs who intend to find their race by using an inter-dimensional portal device which could lead to the galaxy's destruction.
The gameplay is classic Ratchet gameplay: You play as Ratchet with Clank on your back (and sometimes you play a Clank segment) and venture through creative alien worlds and blast the hell out of robots and monster-y creatures with a vast arsenal of ridiculous weapons. One of my favorites is the Netherblades (this games version of Buzz Blades) and the Winterizer which turns enemies and certain bosses into snowmen. You can follow the story or explore each planet or partake in Arena Challenges or hunt for collectibles. The game clocks out at 5-6 hours but you unlock Challenge Mode once you've beaten the story so there's plenty to come back to.
This is a great swan song for the Future series and it makes me excited for what Insomniac Games can give us on the PS4.
