Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart is just a week away, folks. The latest entry in Insomniac's long-lasting series is almost upon us, and if you're like us, you're dancing around like you've been hit with a Groovitron. The PlayStation 5 exclusive looks great, and will be using all the bells and whistles to make for a gorgeous dimension-hopping adventure.
If you've pre-ordered the game on PlayStation Store, the window for pre-loading has begun. If you want to ensure the game is installed and ready to roll on launch day, you can download it right now, and it'll unlock on 11th June.
As was discovered at the end of last month, Rift Apart's download size is actually fairly small. The download is a surprisingly svelte 33.6GB. Have you got pre-load going on Ratchet & Clank's imminent excursion? Watch the countdown clock in the comments section below.

This would be awesome but its far too hot to play right now, which is a bit of a bummer.
This will be the last PS5 exclusive we will have until who knows how long, it's also the first real test of the 70 price tag. I do wish Insomniac nothing but success though as I think they are Sony's best and most versatile team.
I'm really in two minds as to whether to buy this. I had the last game and found some challenges excruciatingly frustrating, especially when they came in middle of some truly immersive fun.
@Juanalf Deathloop in September i think
I hope my physical copy turns up a day early like ME Legendary did. This will probably be like Miles Morales and after it's initial opening sales will keep yo-yoing back up the charts.
@BearsEatBeets where did you order ME from if you don't mind me asking?
@Wiggo I got it form 'The Game Collection'. To be fair it's the only game that turned up early of the handful I've brought from them so the odds are pretty slim it will happen again. Still their prices are good and the reward points mean I knock a few quid off every other game I get.
@Wiggo I ordered mine from The Game Collection - it's £62.95 on there (I had about a fiver of loyalty points too). I do laugh at these pre-load options when most of our physical copies will arrive on Thursday!
@Quintumply misspelled 'Ratchet' in the headline there, bud.
@Turismo4GT Oops! Good save!
Too many great games! Really struggling to keep up. This will be the perfect game to play between ME 1 and 2. Can't wait!
I'll wait to see if Tesco do a 'Tesco' again and make it £10 cheaper than anywhere else to Clubcard members.
Plan to preorder the physical version, I really hope I can finish returnal before this game come out. I don't want to stock pile ps5 backlog so early in the console lifecycle lol.
I’ve held off on FF VII remake until the PS5 version drops right alongside Rift Apart so even though I’m massively excited for this I’m going to wait a little longer to play it. Conveniently it’s my son’s birthday on 18th and he loved the 2016 instalment so maybe I’ll buy it ‘for him’…
Pre-ordered a physical copy yesterday. I cannot wait to try out the Pulse 3D headphones I just purchased on this game! One more week to go
I'm sat with my elbows on the table, fingertips touching, playing the waiting game!
@BearsEatBeets Thanks for the heads up 👍
@JB_Whiting much obliged 👍
@LittleToyTitan I'm in that same boat.
Trying to finish another run on Resi 8, I still need to start Original Sin II, I'm half way through the last expansion of FF XIV, FF VII expansion + Ratchet and Clank on the way... There's no tiiiiiiiiime!
This is why I like one game at a time to play the crap out of for half a year.
@Shepherd_Tallon Didn't even have a chance to start RE Village yet. Sometimes I miss the SNES days. Fewer games and even less money .
Perfect, will download this afternoon!!
@Yozora146_ what? 😂
Me to brain: This actually doesn't come out next week. It comes out when the price gets to 60 dollars or less.
Repeat 100 x
@DTfeartheBEARD
I was wondering. Are they worth buying?
I currently use Playstation Gold TLOU Part II specials with my PS5. I’m wondering if it’s worth the upgrade.
@LittleToyTitan that’s exactly what im doing. I beat the first last week, im gonna play R&C, play the second one, play something else (maybe RE8?), and then finish the 3rd game.
If only I could pre-load my PS5 order so I didn’t have to keep missing out... ;(
For me, this will be the first true test of how the PS5 is going to shape up for the rest of the generation. The only true PS5
exclusive for a while from a first party studio.... I'm so disappointed that HZDFW and GOW will most likely be hindered by the fact that they've been developed with PS4 in mind as well as the 5....
I live in Arizona. I downloaded the game last night and it said playable on 6/10 which probably means 9pm since I’m in mountain time.
"svelte" love it
Installed and ready to unleash.
@TheRedComet
I can't speak for the Gold Headset because I don't have those. For $100 I would say they are worth the purchase. 12 hour battery life and usb type c charging helped my decision towards buying the Pulse even though I have 2 Platinum wireless headsets. If you have a Nintendo Switch, both headsets work wirelessly with the Switch in docked mode also which is a nice bonus for me at least. So far I have only tried the Pulse headset with Spider-Man Miles Morales, Resident Evil Village and Mass Effect Legendary Edition and the experience has been great.
@Rob_230 is deathloop exclusive to ps5?
Downloaded and ready to go!
@LittleToyTitan Those were the days. 😌I'm not complaining about all of the choice we have these days, but it's a little exhausting.
@KundaliniRising333 its on PC too but yeah it has 1 year timed console exclusivity on PS5 with no PS4 version mentioned
Pumped. Looking forward to it.
@Waffles12415 Yep, RE 8 seems like another perfect title to play in between two longer games.
@Shepherd_Tallon Yeah, we can't complain about the amount of high quality titles coming our way, but man, it's just impossible to keep up! I don't understand how people can possibly cope with a service such as Game Pass Ultimate. Call me old school, but I like to absorb a game like a good book or a nice meal. Rushing through a title to be able to start with the next just feels wrong to me.
@LittleToyTitan "like a good book" Exactly this. I completely agree.
Game Pass is a great service and all, but I know I would be exhausted by it. Just thinking about it makes me feel frantic. I have a Series X, but so far I'm just installing old 360 and OG XBOX RPGs while I wait for the likes of Starfiled and Avowed.
@Yozora146_ You have to play outside?
@Turismo4GT Thunks
@LittleToyTitan Yeah, I'm an extremely slow player. How many hours they say a game is, I can easily double, maybe even triple.
@tselliot I Live in England dude, which means our houses are solid brick, insulated to keep heat in, and our houses rarely have A/C, (you know, because its mostly cold and wet 9 months of the year). I also don't live in the south (so no london) which means I'm acclimatised to cooler weather.
I am seriously tempted to switch my pre-order from Amazon to PlayStation Store, I want to start playing the game as soon as I wake up Friday morning...
Enjoy the game those with PS5, I have no doubt that the game is 10/10. I still do not have a PS5, but maybe in the near future I can grab one and play Ratchet, Returnal and all other games at superior level.
