Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is the next major PlayStation 5 exclusive, and it's shaping up very nicely indeed. Insomniac Games must employ a bunch of witches and wizards, because it seems that every game they put out is a winner. We can't imagine Rift Apart will disappoint, and there's not long to wait. The colourful platformer comes to PS5 on 11th June, in just under a month's time.
The other good news is that the developer has just announced the game has gone gold, meaning the major work is done, and it's ready to roll.
Just a little detail we think is funny: the Trophy notification in the little clip above indicates that going gold is a bronze achievement. Some games give you a bronze Trophy for just starting them up. At least award yourselves a gold fake Trophy, Insomniac.
Anyway, while work will likely continue on patches and updates, the bulk of the work has concluded, and we can all comfortably look forward to firing this up next month. Are you excited for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart? Tell us in the comments section below.

June 11th cant come faster!
Found out today that the voice actor of Captain Quark won't return for this game due to ill health. Very sad to hear, here's hoping he gets better.
@AdamNovice Thankfully Captain Quark has that generic "hero voice" (not a criticism, it's definitely intentional)!
Hopefully the voice actor gets better, though!
So excited about this game!
Can't wait to get this along with one of the new controllers.
@JapaneseSonic 2009 ! I'm also hoping that this gen has more R&C games aswell, there's 11 games on the Ps3 (counting the HD trilogy) I think and one on PS4 !
I'm glad its actually coming out when they said it would, tends to be a good sign. Can see this being one of the first games that will be noticeabley next gen quality.
Last 4 games these guys released (including this), I got day one.. damn fine studio.
Already pre-ordered
@HMazzy111 Returnal says hello.
@MightyDemon82 In some areas I agree, however while playing Returnal I wouldn't have been surprised if someone had told me it was also a PS4 game. Playing it with the Dualsense I think makes a big difference ofcourse, as does 60fps but it would be totally doable on PS4 I'm sure.
@MightyDemon82. I know right .returnal is a amazing game.so was demon souls etc.im sure ratchet and clank will be amazing also.word up son
@HMazzy111 Fair point @playstation1995 can't go wrong on playstation the future is looking good and we hardly know all the games they have cooking. Word up son.
@HMazzy111 When the bullet-hell starts, PS5's hardware really shows its worth. No way all those particles flying around on screen @60fps on PS4.
June 11th will be the best day of the year!
I'll be playing this with my new Cosmic Red Dualsense controller. Can't wait 😁.
Can't wait for this game 😃
@AdamNovice That's too bad, I like his voice on ratchet & clank ps4, I hope he get better.
Can't wait!
I think this will be THE biggest PS5 exclusive since Spiderman MM in terms of mainstream appeal.
@HMazzy111
Absolutely no chance Returnal could run on PS4.
The game is internally rendered at 1080p, temporal upsampled to 1440p, then uses checkerboard rendering to get to 4K.
Rip Ratchet and Clank. We all saw what happened after Cyberpunk went gold.
The facial animation in this game is incredible. So full of charm and personality.
..ready for June release on ps5
Is it ps4 or pc bound as well?
@PhhhCough PC? Not impossible, but still wouldn’t happen at least for a couple of years. PS4 isn’t powerful enough to run it (the SSD making the ’instant’ dimensional hops possible probably being the biggest reason), so that’s never happening.
I have always liked the gone gold articles, but unless Insomniac is going to start building PS5 now I'm afraid it's going to be a long while before we can play it. It's pretty much the only game w/ a release date announced on any system right now that we are looking forward to. There are several other big name games but no dates. It's like 2020 just won't end. I 'm going to go mow the lawn. 😢
I’m really looking forward to this, I’ve played every Ratchet and Clank game, this is gonna be next level awesome.
@Quintumply I love the included Tweet, so nice XD
@DTfeartheBEARD Same here! I'm gonna get the Cosmic Red controller when it goes on sale though, not in a hurry to buy that.
Especially when it's around the same price as a brand new game lol.
@Katsuhono @JapaneseSonic Hard to believe it's been that long since a full length R&C game released...June is gonna be awesome
@PhhhCough Rift Apart is a PS5 exclusive, not releasing on PS4 or PC.
@wiiware @GamingFan4Lyf @AdamNovice Does this mean Captain Quark isn't in Rift Apart? Or they just used a different voice actor.
@KidBoruto Understandable because it is expensive lol. The Dualsense is my favorite controller and I already have 2 of them so I don't need another one but I can't help myself haha. I'll pick up the black Dualsense also.
