Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart will have an optional 60fps mode

Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart will have an optional 60 frames per second (fps) mode, Insomniac Games has confirmed in an interview with Famitsu. However, the 60fps will not be playable in 4K resolution. If you want to play in 4K then you will have to settle for 30fps. Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is taking advantage of the technology offered by the PS5. Loading times are all but gone allowing for rift jumping between stages to be very smooth. If you missed it earlier, you can catch the extended gameplay demo below.

Quite a lot of information has come out over the last couple of days for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and we have that list of information below.

• The Rift Tether is the name for the ability for latch onto dimensional rifts and kind of pull them toward him.
• There will be no load screens throughout the game.
• You can feel the energy of a shatter bomb fade away through the haptic feedback of the DualSense
• The adaptive trigger can be used to enable secondary fire with weapons. The Enforcer can fire one shot by half-pulling the trigger until you feel a bit of resistance, before then pulling it all the way to fire the second.
• This is a canonical continuation of Ratchet & Clank: Into the Nexus, but can be treated as a standalone game.
• There are more dimensional rift abilities that haven’t been shown.
• The fast-paced dimension hopping will be reserved for when you chase after Doctor Nefarious.
• Though she will be playable, the mysterious female Lombax name was not revealed. It might not be Abby, though.
• The game will be out in the PS5 “launch window”, which means it likely won’t be out on day one, but could be some time up to 6 months later, based on the broadest definition of the phrase. In other words, expect it in the first half of 2021.

The game is one of two that Insomniac have in the works for PS5, the other being Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. That game is built on the foundations of the 2018 PS4 exclusive, looking to tell the story of the second person to don the Spider-Man costume, Miles Morales.
