Ratchet & Clank Debuts on PS3

That’s right, they’re coming to next-gen. Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction will arrive on PS3 this fall. If you haven’t played this series yet, it’s really good stuff. Not only is the series good, but it’s developed by Insomniac Games. They made this little game on PS3 already, maybe you heard of it. It’s called Resistance: Fall of Man.

While there are few details on the title at this point, you can expect new wacky weapons, new environments, and new adventures. In fact, here’s a small list of some things you can look forward to:

• Fire a fully stocked arsenal of all-new weapons such as the Plasma Beasts and Tornado Launcher, which uses the SIXAXIS controller to direct tornadoes that suck up enemies and whip them around with debris.
• Use the SIXAXIS controller to maneuver, destroy enemies and solve puzzles.
• Upgrade and customize weapons with a new system that provides greater power and flexibility. Players also will have the ability to upgrade Ratchet’s armor.
• Utilize Ratchet’s new supply of consumable “on-demand” combat devices, such as the Groovitron, which causes enemies to dance uncontrollably to ‘70s disco hits.
• Gadgets gameplay returns as Ratchet and Clank will have more gadgets at their disposal to help them bounce, fly, evade and defy gravity.
• Pilot Ratchet’s ship through asteroid fields while trying to destroy enemy fleets in a complete redesign of classic Ratchet & Clank space combat gameplay.

It sounds like another great installment in the series. We’ll hit you with a release date when we know it!
