Ratchet & Clank: Premature Release is a vertical slice of an UNOFFICIAL and UNFINISHED PS2 era-styled Ratchet and Clank fangame that will likely never reach completion and therefore the content made for it is being released like this.


This is closest thing we have to Classic Ps2 Ratchet

Here is a video on the cut Content

I guess users here only prefer to talk about sales data?

it looks like garbage
Kinda wish PS did more w R&C. From a concept & sandbox standpoint it has so much potential. R&C tactics, R&C Mario like side scroller, R&C top down or 3rd person rogue like, R&C metal slug attack style game. All of these would be great spin offs aswell licensing out the ip to see new studios out there spin breeding new talent, ideas & concept for the R&C universe

Then you wonder why people don't wanna discuss games on here when we have garbage takes like the ones above
PS needs to get that PS3 emulator on PS4/PS5 so many classics games aswell as PS exclusive still stuck there.

It makes me sad when I hear about a Horizon 1 remake, TLOU 2 remake etc when we really need a inFAMOUS remake, R&C deadlock remake or just in general AA games coming from PS studios. The sole focus on AAA & the dry spell is starting to become really really sad & it hits harder when PS is not seemingly turning all of there studios multi team or licensing out there ip to 3rd party

As much as I love ratchet, it doesn’t have that type of brand power.

Also, while I do love the ps2 ratchet games, theirs no way I could be excited by a fan rip of 20+ year old games. I’d love a Ratchet game with its ps2 era vibe from Insomniac though (never gonna happen)

They certainly got the movement and look of the classic games down. This is pretty cool! A shame it's just a demo though; I'd be worried they'd get copyright struck before they ever finished it

Ratchet & Clank rift apart will sell 5+ million lifetime. Considering the game launch when there was 20 million PS5 R&C rift apart selling 5+ million is very impressive for instance Pikmin sold 4 million w 130+ million Switch & Metroid Dred sold 3 million w130+ million Switch.

R&C rift apart is the best selling premium R&C game w only the PS4 R&C selling 7.4 million & that was mainly due to the price which was $40 & there was near if not more then 100 million PS4.

Not sure why people think Ratchet & Clank doesn’t have potential or brand power R&C games have always reviewed & sold well. Not only can R&C be expanded w different genre games but more games in general at a faster cadence but R&C can be expanded w cross media like a puss in boots style animated film/tv show

How did All 4 One sell? Or Full Frontal Assault? they tried this already and the market spoke.

PS3 era PS & PS4/PS5 era PS is a different bread.

Outside GT has any PS game from there first party sold 10+ million? It’s almost natural for PS studios AAA singleplayer games from key studios hitting near 10 million sells if not 15,20,25 million something PS didn’t due much of at all in the PS3 era.

Had to go & pick 2 spin of ratchet games that had identity issues due to trouble development & having to make it for the PS vita. 2 troubled consoles that really only turned around the last years of its lifecycle

Looks nice for being an amateur fan made game, even if obviously not good enough for being a commercial game. Let's hope Sony doesn't send them a cease and desist, there's a lot of effort there.
