RATCHET AND CLANK: NIEUWE UPDATE ACHT JAAR NA RELEASE

Apr 15, 2024 12:46 PM

In a surprise update, Insomniac Games has breathed new life into the 2016 "Ratchet & Clank" remake for its eighth anniversary. This update unlocks a powerful weapon, The Bouncer, previously available only as a pre-order bonus. Players can now enjoy blasting enemies to bits with this grenade launcher, which shoots large grenades that split into smaller bombs on impact. This enhancement joins the last significant update from 2021, where Ratchet & Clank received a performance boost allowing it to run at 60 FPS on the PlayStation 5.

What is The Bouncer, and how can players access it in Ratchet & Clank?

The Bouncer is a weapon in Ratchet & Clank that launches explosives, which subsequently divide into multiple smaller bombs. Players can now access this weapon for free with the latest game update and enjoy an enhanced gaming experience with added firepower.

Ratchet & Clank is a platformer-shooter game originally released in 2002 and then remade in 2016 by Insomniac Games. The series is well-received for its engaging gameplay, inventive weapons, and humorous storytelling. The 2016 remake not only updated the visuals and gameplay but also tied in with the release of the "Ratchet & Clank" animated movie, offering fans a modernized iteration of the duo's original adventure.

Ah, the good ol' Bouncer making a comeback It's great to see Insomniac Games continuing to support Ratchet & Clank with fresh updates, especially for a fan-favorite weapon like that. It's a sweet gesture for both long-time players and newcomers diving into the intergalactic chaos of the game.
