On November 4th, 2002, Ratchet & Clank released on the PlayStation 2. Developed by Insomniac Games, the title introduced audiences to the Lombax and his robot sidekick. Over the next 18 years, the series would become a major success for Sony, spawning a series of sequels and a 2016 feature film. A new game in the series is set to release during the PS5 launch window, featuring Ratchet, Clank, and a female Lombax that remains nameless, at this time.

Ah, the days of memory cards.
I Remember playing Ratchet & Clank Going Commando on the PS2 when I was younger and not turning off the console for days because I didnโt have a memory card at the time and I didnโt want to lose my progress #RatchetAndClank #Playstation #PS2 #Gaming https://t.co/WN5hZhjhFwโ The Spot (@TheSpot1998) November 5, 2020

That new game is the reason some are buying a PS5 this year.
Ratchet & Clank was a huge part of my childhood and teenage years. They helped me develop a sense of humor when I was young and get away from the bad times. Canโt wait to see what Ratchet & Clank have in store for us in Rift Apart! I got my PS5 pre ordered! @insomniacgames https://t.co/nYbZxD0UDE pic.twitter.com/GnBx5CA6b2โ Austin VandeVoorde (@Austin_Vande) November 4, 2020
Of course, some fans would like to see more than that on the new system!
